Overheard at a physics convention...
"Dang, Harry, did you ever notice that the Big Bang theory sounds a lot like Genesis? Shoot - we can't have that, the creationists will have a field day. We better come up with a new theory, and fast. How about multiple universes or a hypercube? Yeah, that's cool. Let's see them make THAT work with Genesis."
