It is difficult to be a skeptic because you end up being wrong a lot more than if you only have one set of invariant beliefs. The little future monster in the last panel today is learning that the hard way.
Rest assured, though, that he (or she! it is hard to tell when they don't dress gender-specifically) is just a freshman at university and will have the uppity questioning nature beaten out of him by sophomore year. (He's probably just annoyed that he was chosen to wear a propeller beanie)

Rabid: I'll take two, please!
Rabid: Argh! All you ever do is sit around and eat my food! Get a job or get OUT!!
Orange Kitten: Mew?
Purple Kitten: Prum?
[[Dr Quickly is wearing a fancy straw boater.]]
Dr Quickly: And you say it was made by your kittens!? I'll buy it at any price for it is a wonderful hat!!
[[Rabid has dollar signs for eyes.]]
[[There is a "SPACE ROCKET" in the backyard.]]
Rabid: You saved your share of the proceeds for this? When do we leave!?
Orange Kitten: MEW.
Rabid: Oh, I see.
Old Bearded Rabid: "Haturday" is the special time each year when the space cats send down new and wonderfully apropos hats to all the boys and girls and men and ladies.
Religionist: But the "Book" clearly states the cats started sending us hats 4000 years ago!
Skeptic: Teleological balderdash! The hats EVOLVED!!
Religionist: But they descend from the heavens on rays of light!!
