Get a reaction

Originally published March 3, 2005

I've noticed over the years that if I really want to stir shit, generate a lot of comment and actually start blog-piss wars between people who just showed up to comment, I can write about either one of two subjects.

#1: ABORTION!!!

#2: RELIGION!!!

Some people get fired up on those topics when they don't really seem to give a shit about anything else. I've never understood that kind of visceral reaction. These people couldn't find the Middle East on a globe, but they know what they're talking about when it comes to abortion and religion. Some of them will have an abortion and then join PETA. Some of them will become Wicca or Bhuddist. Others will be athiests or else establish a NEW RELIGION!!!

I know what I think about it, but I don't care to discuss either one of those topics tonight.
