Well, this is what happens when you believe in imaginary things. This is why I prefer reason to religion. At least 50 people have lost their sight after staring at the sun hoping to see an image of the Virgin Mary, according to reports.

At least some countries are on the right path: “The Register is reporting that the UK government has stated there is no place in the science curriculum for Intelligent Design and that it can not be taught as science. ‘The Government is aware that a number of concerns have been raised in the media and [...]
