The Royal Mail, in celebration of the 350th Anniversary of the founding of the Royal Society, put out a series of stamps commemorating the science and scientists who broke ground on some of the most important concepts and theories of our time. Why did the Royal Mail do this? Because the Queen was tired of putting herself on stamps and no one could agree what God looked like so they could put His picture on a stamp.
What is the US doing to celebrate science? Well, 40% of us now believe in creationism, are swelling the ranks of places like Liberty university to learn about creationism instead of actual science, and leaving ourselves open to televised mocking from foreign news agencies.
