Atheists launch new attack on Christians
Atheists, disguising themselves under the name and organization The American Humanist Association. Have launched a new attack on Christians and their faith. The claim that many atheists feel left out around the holidays and are oppressed by Christian beliefs at this time of year. Yet they leave out the fact that they also enjoy the time off, the sales, and all other events that happen around this time.
The American Humanist Association has started an add campaign in Washington D.C. "We are trying to reach our audience, and sometimes in order to reach an audience, everybody has to hear you," said Fred Edwords, spokesman for the humanist group. "Our reason for doing it during the holidays is there are an awful lot of agnostics, atheists and other types of non-theists who feel a little alone during the holidays because of its association with traditional religion."
The $40,000.00 campaign has lifted the lyrics from Santa Clause is coming to town and replaced it with lyrics that promote a faithless tune. Why they picked this tune is unknown as it is not a religious song.
The purpose isn't to argue that God doesn't exist or change minds about a deity, although "we are trying to plant a seed of rational thought and critical thinking and questioning in people's minds." said Edwords. To that end, the ads and posters will include a link to a Web site that will seek to connect and organize like-minded thinkers in the D.C. area.
Now if these "atheists" do not believe in God then that is their choice. To publicly announce and parade around at the Holidays is fine. It is their Constitutional right to do so. However to put restrictions and limitations on the 90% plus who do believe in God is wrong and an infringement on our Constitutional rights.
