Atheists offer porn for bibles


www.kens5.com
Emotions ran high last week when an atheist group asked UTSA students to trade in their Bibles for pornographic magazines.

On Monday afternoon, the group set up a table on campus for their "Smut for Smut" trade offer. The group featured a sign at their table that read, "Trade in Holy Text 4 Porn."

Sorry about the double post here. Computer was freezing up and apparently sent the message twice.

Obviously doing this for attention - and apparently it seems to be working.


Wonder how many motel/hotels in the area will come up short on bibles in the near future...





But, what if they tried this with the Koran..? I bet they would get beat down quickly...

I will say this though.

It seems to me that Atheism has become the worlds newest organized religion. I am so sick of the "look at me I don't believe in anything so I'm going to push my believing in nothing on everyone else and desecrate everything sacred that they hold just because I think it is crap" mentality. Why is it such a big deal to Atheists? You'd figure since they believe in nothing they wouldn't care so much about what others believe.. I mean why do you give a crap less? What is the point? Why give a flying fart in space what I believe?

They go out of the way to pick fights just for the sake of it!

Why won't these people just let us believe in God in peace? Is that so hard? Just let us believe whatever the {snip} we want to and we will do the same for you....

It seems like just a way to get attention..... What are these people? Toddlers?

Grow up already!


I see your point, however:
-Atheists have been ostricized for centuries-they have every right to speak up
-Often times, atheists are challenged into a debate, and then labeled as someone who is trying to bash christianity. It seem many have a problem with an atheist defending his point of view at all.
-Atheists are forced to be bombarded with religious propaganda and reference everywhere they go-doesnt seem that out of line for them to speak their beliefs back.


Now, all that being said, I personally think most atheists are not even atheists. Most are agnostic, but dont realize that there is a difference between not being sure what you believe, and not believing anything at all.

I don't care what you do or don't believe, I would like the same courtesy. Is that too much to ask?

That would be fine if it was just speaking beliefs. Bashing others is a totally different story.

BTW, I don't challenge people to religious debates. In fact most of my friends are atheists. That's cool they can think what they want, but 99% of the time I am the one that is challenged.

Those challenges come up actually when someone asks me, "what do you believe?" Then they start bickering with me because they don't agree when all they did was ask me to state my belief system. It's almost as if they asked the question just to put down the answer.

Most people would call that childish.
