Faithful Readers have probably been wondering about Cy, the kitten born without a nose, and with only one eye, that was being stored in a refrigerator freezer in Oregon. I know I have been kept up nights thinking about it, hoping that the kids don't inadvertently grab a Cy-sicle as a midnight snack...
The folks at Ripley's Believe It Not offered to buy the kitten, but the owner said, We didn't want Cy becoming a joke or part of a personal collection.
Not wanting that, hypocrisy got the best of her and she sold the frozen body to creationist John Adolfi who is building a new museum in Phoenix, New York. Cy will be featured at the completely frightening The Lost World Museum which displays giant plants and eggs, deformed animal remains and archaeological finds, after he gets back from his embalming at Krueger Funeral Home.
Mr. Adolfi says that the kitten is meant to launch debate about how science and religion intersect.
How about a debate about when respect for the dead and personal financial gain intersect?
