Pluto - What the Frell?

Okay, so amidst the FAILED prediction of the fear-mongers that the Apocalypse was going to start his Tuesday and the NEWSGASM about the JonBenet fiasco, scientists have declared that Pluto, the outermost planet in our solar system, is no longer a "planet". It has been officially re-categorized as a "dwarf planet". I guess that also takes out 2003 UB313, which would have also been the 10th planet.Now you would THINK that there would be MORE IMPORTANT things to discuss concerning science, wouldn’t you?

Things like… oh, I don’t know…. How about coming up with more reasons to keep the origins of the universe in the school textbooks? The theocrats are hell-bent on declaring science to be a religion in and of itself and these eggheads are debating about whether PLUTO should be a planet in the solar system!

How about pushing for NASA to do their jobs and fix the Hubble Space Telescope so you guys can DO more research? Or did you forget about that little detail?

Tell you what, we’ll forget about Pluto if you eggheads will actually exert some political gravitational influence instead of letting OUR intellectual dark matter get sucked into the inescapable black hole of Christian moralism. Does that sound plausible to you?
