For every thousand or so atheists, there are always a small select group who make us look bad. Achelia is a prime example of this. (This is true for religions too, not everyone is an extremist but the ones who are, are the ones who cause us to think of negative stereotypes when most of us are...
I have one I heard by Frank Zappa (apologies if anyone has already posted this one)

Well, I think that fetishes are normal. If it's something you enjoy and arouses you and others with you, then how is it a bad thing? (Unless it's something highly illegal, not even going to go to those areas!!)
I have several fetishes, and for me it makes sex even more pleasurable. But then...
Out of interest; what exactly did the book say? How was it incorrect? (NB I fully believe in evolution, am very curious as to how it interpreted evolution) :)
