PZ Myers is not known for his lyrical prose, but I really liked this paragraph in response to a creationist dunderhead who was lecturing him on the foolishness of supporting Darwinian theory.

I’ve split half-billion year old stones to expose the shells of trilobites, I’ve seen the bones of Tiktaalik, I’ve held in my hands the skull of Neanderthal. I’ve compared the genes of mice and flies, I’ve studied the embryos of grasshoppers and fish, I’ve read thousands of papers produced by a scientific community that values curiosity over money. I’ve also read dozens of books by creationists, and I can say with complete confidence that they, and you, Mr Michael Aprile, are full of shit.

It called to mind Roy’s final words from Blade Runner:

I’ve seen things you people wouldn’t believe. Attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion. I watched C-beams glitter in the dark near Tannhäuser Gate. All those moments will be lost in time, like tears in rain.

(well obviously the last part is a little different, but I imagine PZ would have something pretty eloquent to say should a priest ever try a deathbed conversion on him)
