It always helps to maintain your sense of humour.
Recently I've started telling ID and anti-scientists that I believe there is a large pink spider sitting on their ceiling above their computer.
So far, on one occaision, it has led to a useful debate about the nature of knowing and science. On another, the person I was addressing left the thread, so never answered it. Now I've tried it on thordaddy, and got an entertainingly vague answer about nothing in science saying there might not be a spider there.
Proposing such a ridiculous thing helps make some things about how we know what we know, and how do I know you know what you know, etc etc much more clear.
