Atheists: If you got stuck in an elevator....?

...with an evangelical conservative spokesperson (think Palin, Beck etc) who would it be, and what would you say to them?

Update:

OK, you've got two hours until they get the doors open.

    I doubt there would be time for conversation. They would be in the corner gibbering to their god to help them out, while I would be busy actively working toward getting us out. Somehow I doubt I'd get the credit once successful.

    I doubt it would be Palin or Beck or anyone famous, since they don't work in my building.

    But if I was stuck in an elevator for very long with an evangelical conservative, there's a huge probability that I would say something like, "STFU."

    How should I know who it would be? This whole hypothetical question of my getting stuck in an elevator is disturbing all by itself. I'd probably pick Coulter or Palin b/c they're women and they're not bad looking. Maybe the fear of the situation (knowing for example that some one from yaR/S had the power of voodoo over their lives and could make them get stuck in elevators) would push them to get nekkid and freeky with me.

    As long as I respected them as people, it wouldn't be a problem.

    Palin and Beck and I wouldn't have a problem finding something neutral to talk about.

    As far as religion? I'd just explain that I respect their choice of faith but it isn't for me. Then we'd start talking about how screwed up this country is and what can be done to fix it.

    What makes you think they'd suddenly let me get a word in edgewise?

    This is exactly why I always take the stairs.
