No Harry Potter? It teaches witchcraft!? Please, I've tried all those spells and the best I got was turning my...oh wait, I can't say that, the kids might be reading.

No evolution? Puh-leaze. Hell, I've proven Darwin's theory with a batch of mealworms.

If we can't get those damn fundys out there to be normal, I say we do a massive Atheist migration to Kansas to tell these people the truth. And lets smuggle some Harry Potter in disguised as bibles.

You've lost me. To what, specifically, are you referring concerning Kansas?

Me too, and I'm IN Kansas.

Kansas is weird

I might agree but for the fact that I live in Ohio, a state that's developed delusions of Kansashood in recent years.

Actually the fundy school board people all got voted out, and evolution was put back into the curricula.

Harry Potter blow ups are no bigger here than say, Arkansas, Alabama, and Louisiana.

And actually, the northeast quadrant. Lawrence to Kansas City is pretty tolerable. Tons of people with Masters, and PhDs because of KU, K-State, and KU Med all packed into essentially the same region. OK, K-State is a little way west, but lots of the graduates from there come here to the metro.

I can't defend most of south, central, and western kansas. The 50,000 square miles that makes up the western 5/8s of the state has no town's over 40,000 and less than 10 over 20,000. So it is not a mecca of thought or cosmopolitan activities. But they are just regular people for the most part.

Oh yeah, and off to Misc. Disc. You'll get more response there anyway.
