Frivology

Apparently, it’s easier than I thought to be a militant atheist.  Apparently, all you have to do is buy a t-shirt!

Check out how militant the new atheists are by logging on to the website of one of the movement’s patriarchs, Brit Richard Dawkins. There you can buy aT-shirt with a quotation from Dawkins’ best-seller, “The God Delusion.”The quotation spares no punches for those of us who believe in God and the Bible: “The God of the Old Testament is arguably the most unpleasant character in all of fiction; jealous and proud of it; a petty, unjust, unforgiving control freak; a vindictive, bloodthirsty, ethnic cleanser; a misogynistic, homophobic, racist…”

Well there you are! I cut short the intolerant diatribe, but don’t be surprised if you’re walking through the mall some day and you run smack into it - as I say, atheism is out of the closet, preaching their gospel with a fierce pitbull militancy we’ve never before seen here in the Western world.

Well, crap… if a t-shirt makes you a militant, there’s an awful lot more militant Christians out there than there are militant atheists.
