    Dracula & other undead people who sleep in coffins must have good abs. They always rise up flat-backed when the casket opens.

        @neiltyson that's a weird thing to think about. You're weird. Weird is good. By the transitive property of weird, you're good.

        @neiltyson Vampires are the sexier of the monsters. If they didn't work out, they'd just be zombies.

        @justinawalford @neiltyson Interesting idea. All undead are the same, but vampires strictly watch their diet and work out. Real go-getters.

        @RepStevenSmith @neiltyson accepting scientific fact & postulates does not make one atheist. Ignoring scientific truth is simply ignorant.

        @melisheath @neiltyson The Nazis had "scientific" proof for eugenics. Margaret Sanger believed that abortion eliminated "inferior races."

        @RepStevenSmith @neiltyson Look at source & whether science is supported by fact. Religion's used for awful ends also, do you throw it out?
