Only Two Doors?

91 words.

Here’s another one of those Pharyngula posts of the annoying variety: Doors. PZ’s making the slightly ignorant assumption that there are only 2 “doors” to choose from in life. (Ie. the Atheism-is-Smart door and the Everything-Else-is-Dumb door — this, by the way, is the same basic assumption made by his much-hated rivals, the Creationists, which PZ would undoubtedly take as a rather large insult — which is why I like the comparison so much.) He needs a Guardian C in his scenario, who would say, “I suggest waiting for another door.”
