Scarlet Letter

You know those snotty t-shirts that say, "Know Jesus, Know peace"? Well, now atheists can get their own signature shirts. (I just bought two.)

"As yet another delightful T-shirt put it, "Don't pray in our school, and I won't think in your church." "

Another amusing one, from Landover Baptist.

Here's the thing, though. I don't think questioning religion, especially organized religion, is at all equivalent to trying to convert anybody. I would never tell someone to give up their religion, only to inform themselves further, or to not use "what God/the bible says" to excuse themselves from wrongdoing. That is not conversion as I would be uninterested in where this person ends up faithwise, I am only interested in them behaving like a responsible and kind human being.

Every once in a while I have a moment where! omgz, I have something to say and I actually know exactly how to say it. It's so nice when that happens.
