Won't Anyone Think of the Children?

OH MY GOD the sky is falling, the sky is falling!

How utterly tragic! I guess someone somewhere will put one of these coins under the microscope, recoil in horror and immediately sprinkle it and its vicinity in holy water and prayer. What if foreign visitors withdraw their tourist money and take it to some country that isn't a great, big, stinking, godless cess pool?

We don't ALL trust in God or even the same God and I kind of resent the Government putting this stuff on coins and notes to begin with. Is there going to be an Atheist coin that worships cake and poker chips? Then I protest. Don't presume to speak for me Mr. Government. Stick it up your pie hole.

Smokey Eyed

The human race is a complex and fragile thing. There are people in all corners of the Earth (Earth has corners?) who have developed amazing talents, relevant to improving their situation or adapting to climate. People who can do marvellous things in the name of entertainment, for the betterment of humankind, or just for survival. Men and women who possess or have developed talents to wow and bedazzle our psyches and showcase how truly unique human beings really are.

Then there's this guy, who proves that Darwin may have had a point after all.
