Hmmmmmmmmmmmmm...... Perhaps Futurama was a true story....... Looking for Trek pics from Futurama to mock this little town I ran into a real life church: http://purgatorio1.com/?p=538 Founded in 1977, “The Spock,” as the church is called, is the world’s only church of Star Trek, a religion centered on the popular 1960’s television series featuring the adventures of a crew of interstellar explorers. “The Spock” promotes beliefs associated with one of the popular characters in the TV series, Mr. Spock, who was from a peace-loving race of aliens known as “Vulcans.”
There is a part of me that thinks that it is cool, but the rest of me thinks that it is crazy. Well at least they aren't as crazy as the cross dressing guy from Trekkies.
I've been to Vulcan, Alberta for their annual Trek convention. It's a tiny little town in the middle of miles and miles of soybean fields, but there in the center of town is this great big starship. It's surreal.
