Get over themselves? Sounds like good advice. Perhaps, you should give that to some of your non-believing brethren who have aneurisms and strokes, every time they see a Nativity scene or a little kid has the audacity to mention Jesus Christ during the Christmas season.

As I’ve heard one pastor state, atheists are some of the strangest people you’ll meet (a number of them, anyway). Who else gets all worked up and bent out of shape, about something that they don’t believe exists?




Hey, I agree with that too... Everyone needs to shut the fuck up... People get so worked up over bullshit.

If they all took a little of that energy and spent some effort on fixing real problems, the world would be great.

Up here in Ontario, the hilarious part is 'The Golden Compass' was on the reading list. One teacher was reading it to the class, when all of a sudden, both the Halton catholic school boards, and the Dufferin-Peel Catholic school boards, banned the books. The kids were right in the middle of it so most went to the municipal public libraries to check them out. With all the controversy, I'm sure it boosted ticket sales. The interesting thing is both school boards never said they banned the boooks as being anti-christian or anti-catholic. They said they banned them because the author is an avowed atheist.  ::)

Excellent point.
