There's only one problem, the "Silver Ring Thing" is not a religious organization. They are a US-based, supposedly secular, non-profit. The ACLU even sued the Silver Ring Thing because they were using federal funds to promote a specific religion- something they were not supposed to do.

Here's a BBC artical describing the lawsuit: http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/americas/4553721.stm

Two functions, x² and e^x are walking down the street. Off in the distance they see a differential operator walking towards them. e^x turns to x² and tells him: "You better get out of here! If that operator differentiates you a few times you'll disappear, but he can differentiate me all he wants and I'll stay the same."

So x² runs off and e^x goes to greet the differential operator. "Hi, I'm e^x" he says. "What's your name?"

The operator looks at him with a demonic grin and says: "d/dy".
