It makes me want to go up to him and say stuff that _truly_ offends religious believers.
I had previously gone with "your imaginary friend" as the way to spark the biggest explosion with the least effort. But then I read Stross' "Merchant Princes" series, where an alternate universe pagan utters the words "dead god on a stick."
Mean of me, I know. And unfair to the substantial number of believers who do have mental flexibility and a sense of humor. But I'm cranky in the mornings.
