    Because you might need to use them later, and the bacteria would get worse.

    At the end of the day politics is just trash compared to the Gospel.

    You was proving my point for "doing it now and not later".

    I think it is actually good for these types of traditions to be challenged now and then. This creates the backlash which refreshes it up in the minds of the public again instead of letting it wither away and die with the changing social context.

    Remember that atheist and the "under god" thing in the pledge of allegiance? I was expecting a Jehovah's Witness to complain about the pledge first but nothing beats some of these wacky atheists...
