Excellent! Always nice to find someone else who’s read this. I got a similar epiphany from the Principia Discordia, myself, and then tracked down and read the Illuminatus! Trilogy later on. Thoroughly enjoyable.
Small Gods by Terry Pratchett. I grew up in rural ‘Murica, surrounded by religious folk of varying types and levels of crazy.

Agreed. Look at that line at the bottom of the comic page:
Well damnit. Even bad SFF can be enjoyable for me, but between that and the spoilers I’ll probably just let it drop. Or wait until I can get it via ILL or somesuch. Reading list is already far too long as is.
Higgins makes some interesting political points here, but that’s largely takes a back seat to the physics

It’s alright, we’ve seen this play out before:
Ah. So she didn’t actually go as Jessica Rabbit, but instead as a living personification of the Uncanny Valley. Pretty scary, I must admit.
Howsabout we just convince all the robots to vent upwards at the same time? It’s as convincing and well-thought-out a plan as this diamond dust thing is.
