This was fun!

So there was a rally of Xtian anti-choice activists spreading salt (wtf?) and crossing themselves a lot. I showed up to help out the NARAL/ISO group and really had a blast. I have NO hope of ever converting an anti-choicer to the logical side of things, but at least I could drown them out and be a presence for our side to show the community that indeed, when women's rights are under attack, what do we do?

Stand Up, Fight Back!

My favorite part of the protest was the guy who stripped (it was below freezing, I will add) and did a dance in front of the weirdo fundies. It was hilarious! The cops took him away and ticketed him.

A side note: as Bill says: we got "A-Salted!"

I looked it up. What a bunch of WHACK JOBS.

"Blessed salt is an instrument of grace to preserve one from the corruption of evil occurring as sin, sickness, demonic influence, etc."


Here's what it was like yesterday: (this is the same clinic, same people, a year ago. This shit never gets old, does it? )

Apparently I'm Agnostic (according to some idiots)

People amaze me. I'm not sure why they do, but nonetheless there you have it.

 

This morning while conversing with a coworker he blithely informs me that since I am a skeptic, I cannot possibly be an atheist. Um, what?

 

I knew he was dumb, but that's pretty fucking inane even for him. He stated that I am indeed an Agnostic, since I'm an Atheist until I see proof. Somehow, according to him, this negates my atheism.

 

When thinking this through, I can only imagine that he believes an Atheist is someone, when confronted with a deity, will still deny that deity exists. I'm not sure where he gets this idea.

 

Then again, he reads a lot of Fox News, and didn't know the definition of Xenophobia.
