Don't feel bad, Brian. Mine was often misspelled 'Brat'. We both seem to have conformed to the connotations attached to our errant spellings, but mine to a much less desirable result. Just ask anybody on PB.

BTW Ruben, I first heard part of that quote of Huxley in a sermon by Barnhouse, making the same point; that even a rank unbeliever with any intellect could see that a form of faith was necessary to swallow the assertions of atheistic scientific theories.
Mine was most often misspelled, 'Hey you!' and others that can't be posted here.
