Alright, I'll just start writing in Latin then.

Oh great, Douglas Adam's satirical pseudo-logic on a youtube.

You have no sense of humour. Otherwise, you would have had that sense of 'God disappearing in a puff of logic' nullified by man getting run over on a zebra crossing because he has just proved black is white.

Don't make me break out NTNOCN's sketch.

I thought it was funny when I read it, since it was ludicrous. However, seeing some people give it praise or at least acting like they are, I've since been discouraged from finding humor in it.

I just find it funny, not satirical. My agnosticism (bordering on atheism) is unconnected to Hitch-Hiker's in any case.

Yes.

Hoc (This, neuter, singular, direct object)
filum (thread, neuter, singular, direct object)
vinco. (conquer, 1st person, singular, present, active, indicative.)

I wasn't referring to your use of Douglas Adam's work. This isn't confined to WP either. It happens sometimes when I post something serious about my beliefs that some people reply with quoting Hitchhiker's Guide because they have no concept of respect, so I just get tired of it all. It's not you, just my memories of annoying quasi-conversations.

Imagine how I feel when door-to-door evangelists come a-knockin'. Probably the same (or equivalent) feeling, really. They're the religious equivalent of spammers. I feel like putting on make up like Heath Ledger's Joker and scaring the crap out of them.

As for them using Douglas Adams, well, what can you do? I try not to give your beliefs s***, even though your stance on creationism is surprising. Just ignore the idiots.

Perhaps vici would be more correct, but it would just sound like I'm repeating Caesar.

I want my lines to be original! AAAHHH!
