Protest Much?

Wow. That title is about as far away from Shakespeare's line as one might get while still using any of the words. Oh well.

So there's been a kerfuffle of protest at the Capitol. More signs. Moving the atheist sign to a less obvious place. Rabid "Christians" protesting. Signs.

As for the signs and protests - hey, more power to 'em. They're wrong. But they can say whatever they want, no matter how idiotic. I'll forever defend their right to do so.

But if you want a little chill with your threat of dystopia, look up a news article or two covering this and read the comments. It's scary how many people in this country think the only good atheist is a dead atheist (and I'm not sure they really approve of those).

  2. ahhh...the immoral atheist. It's a wonder I haven't murdered and eaten my kids yet with no fear of a higher power to forbid me to do so.

    I keep wondering which is worse in society's eyes...the Christian Child Molester or the peaceful, yet opinionated Atheist?
