One of These Things is not Like the Others

Very busy this week so I figure I'd leave you with more crappy jokes. 

Credit and Copyright and all other sorts of fun legal ownership goes to Zach Weinersmith over at SMBC. Of Course
And as much as I should be apologizing for this, it does make a very legitimate point. Physically, the laws of the universe are sublime and, while initially impenetrable, beautiful in their simplicity. It seems strange to perhaps affiliate things like obtuse and arbitrary moral codes, somewhat bewildering or confusing in their catechisms, to what is metaphorically a symphony of perfect logical interaction of matter and energy. Put another way, doesn't seem a little bit funny in religion, that whoever penned the simple expression for gravity, f=GMm/r^2, decided that also that homosexuality is not okay? One is this statement of amazing universal equality and power, another, this arbitrary law of social conduct, it just.... doesn't seem to mesh.
