Stephen Hawking and Maine

Earlier today I was entering info into the work database on a course we are doing next year about Stephen Hawking. Funny, there's a show about Hawking on television right now. Fascinating man. As a counterpoint, I absolutely do not understand people who believe in god or gods to explain their existence.

Meanwhile, in Maine, god fearing people turn out to repeal same sex marriage. Keep voting on our lives, we aren't going anywhere. We are your mothers, your fathers, your brothers, your sisters, your neighbors, your doctors, your garbage collectors, your priests, your hairdressers, your...

We live in an age when people would rather waste their time on legislating other people's intimate lives than exploring the possibilities of the universe.

Life is odd.

Good thing I have irony and adjectives.
