Yeah I love Colbert.....[/quote]

Funny how they use the 'omg' phrase even if they don't believe in Him. :lol:

Why not? To her, they're both fiction. It's not that surprising

Except that one fiction she refused, and another fiction she didn't hesitate at all. Why not just take the Bible, if it's a buncha balogna?

To make a point, obviously. Besides, she doesn't agree with the Bible. Let's say you didn't believe the Book of Mormon. You were bothered how it misguided people...how they appeared to be zealots over what amounted to be fiction, in your mind. Would you agree to swear on the Book of Mormon, or would you take a jab at it's supporters & swear on The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy?

There is a difference here, though. Yes, we both don't like how it misguides people in our respective minds. However, I wouldn't swear on a book of Mormon because, in my opinion, it misguides people, and thence endangers peoples' eternal souls. Why should she worry if people are 'misguided'? I can see no reason why she should care what other people believe, if we're nothing more than a lump of organic chemicals all smushed together.
Also, if there were people who truly believed that the Hitchhiker's Guide was a spiritual guide, I wouldn't swear on it, either, for fear of being an accessory to their disillusion.
