War on Christmas Update

First it was some humanist group putting out ads suggesting that one could be good without god, and shamefully doing so with imagery of Santa!

Now it appears the Colorado Coalition of Reason is planning similar activities during the Holidays. Soon the god fearing children of Colorado will be tempted by the Devil's greatest trick:



No, not tricking the world he doesn't exist. Allowing atheists to reach out to fellow doubters and disbelievers during the Christmas season! Next up, God's wrath. Beware residents of D.C. and Colorado... or should I say Sodorado and The District of Gomorrah! Hell hath no fury like a deity scorned!

The Denver Channel has more here. An excerpt of the vile motivations behind this ad campaign and the apocalypse the poor fools are helping usher in:

Ten billboards will pepper metro Denver, while one will be put up in Colorado Springs.

"And we're putting them up in November and December because of the holidays, when church and state issues tend to come up a lot," said Joel Guttormson, with Metro State Atheists. "To let non-believers, free-thinkers and atheists know that they are not alone, especially in a country like ours that is predominantly Christian."

Pastor Willard Johnson of Denver's Macedonia Baptist Church called the billboards a desperate effort to discredit Christianity.

"The Bible is being fulfilled. It says that in latter days, you have all these kinds of things coming up, trying to disrupt the validity of Christianity," Johnson said.

It goes on to quote him and other religious officials chastising atheists for accepting the fact that creation still remains a mystery and people should trust the expertise of religion to explain it... after all religions of every stripe have been making up extravagant and conflicting tales of how it all began since the beginning of recorded time. Of course they were also doing that for why the sun comes up or why bad shellfish must be cursed... but hey, it's progress.

So for all you damned dirty we-came-from-apes theorists, take heed in bringing down the wrath of eons of mythology that has allowed humanity throughout history to avoid having to say those three Satanic words: "I don't know."
