It has always struck me as odd that everybody keeps asking kids the same question this time of year: “Do you believe in Santa?” Why?

One of my most popular posts of all time was the Intelligent Design Venn Diagram. I didn’t make it. I just reprinted it. Nevertheless, a lot of people complained to me that I “made it wrong” and they were offended by it. This one should be even more offensive. Again, I didn’t make it. I [...]
