And don't say it's other religions that want this, it's atheists who use other religions as their arguments.
I have only crossed two picket lines ever in my life. One was a bunch of Christians picketing The last Temptation of Christ. The other was a bunch of Christians picketing the Da Vinci Code.

Here is a picture of Christians burning Harry Potter books, among other things, whatever they don't like and for whatever stupid reason they can think up:


http://themovingtarget.wordpress.com...litics/page/9/

"In Butler County, Pennsylvania ... the Harvest Assembly of God Church in Penn Township held a public book burning that included tossing the Harry Potter books, Disney books, and books advancing the beliefs of Jehovah’s Witnesses and Mormons into the bonfire. Also consigned to the flames were music CDs of Foreigner, Joe Walsh, AC/DC, Bruce Springsteen, Pearl Jam, and REM, as well as videos of “Pinocchio,” “Hercules” and “Jurassic Park.”

REM and "Jurassic Park"? They're smarter than I thought

The problem is that polls never ask or define terms.

We can't make conclusions about a group using this information.

Hey I'm an atheist and I believe in God, it's just that I define God a little differently than most people. God is my pet fish. I definitely have a pet fish so God is real...not that you should believe me.

I don't. Because god is really Haruhi Suzumiya. Everyone knows that.

And Kyonists shall perish for their heresy.

You don't want to hear that atheists are stupid?
Or I am stupid for bringing it up?
