4. I just heard a jaw-dropper on Xian radio...

I'm up early on Zombie Jesus Day, spinning the radio dial looking for good comedy material. I'm in the Deep South, so there's no shortage of Xian loudmouths on the radio.

This statement got my attention: "Christ died to satisfy the wrath of God."

WTF? So he died to satisfy the wrath of himself, by the rules of the Trinity. Oh, I forgot, this is religion, where there are no rules. If somebody points out the irrationality of your belief, just make up something even more irrational. Then claim "Gawd works in mysterious ways."

And to the nanny who lectured us about this sacred day: this is the Atheists & Agnostics Group. Mocking sacred beliefs is what we do here, and all religious holidays are mocked equally, 24/7. If you're annoyed by our Easter party, you should have a great time in here at Xmas.
