Because I am the King of Fairness…
I liked this return serve by the Catholic League to the atheist billboard we spoke about last week:
The New York Times added:
Mr. Donohue said the billboard was not intended as “a statement against atheists or agnostics, most of whom are good people,” but as a repudiation to “aggressive, militant atheism” that he believes is growing increasingly prevalent in America.

I would agree with Mr. Donohue that there are a certain breed of atheists that are simply nasty and unforgiving of those who they think are moronic for believing in Jesus or in God. There are also fundamentalist Christians who are downright dangerously crazy as well and Catholics who boarder on lunacy (not mentioning any names here) too.
So as your King of Fairness this Advent season, may we pray that the looneys are able to take a nice rest from the bombs that they usually chuck at people and that we can all live in the peace that is offered to each of us.
