    Simon's post about Jesus and crosses got me to doing some research and I ran across this. If nothing else, its really funny.

    Very interesting list and I agree people throw around names like Guy Fawkes and Thomas Paine without really knowing what they are talking about. I once read all of Thomas Paine's writings that I could find, it's a very interesting read. Not entirely what you would think if you only read the one about the "summer soldier and the sunshine patriot."

    Cool. Bring up stuff like this at a party and you'll be the party pooper.
