Here’s a little ditty Sean wrote Feb. 1, 2006:

You say Muhammed
And I say Mohammed
You say potahto
And I say potahta
Muhammed, Mohammed, potahto, retahded
Let’s call the whole thing off

(We could have organ grinder sing this through the streets over loudspeaker.)

It’s time to revive the fine art of organ grinding, with a monkey companion. The grinder must have a bullhorn, through which he’ll announce, “Come, an’ a worship a you masta with a beer an’ a pasta! Praise to the Flying Spaghetti Monster!! (marinara be upon Him)”
How many beer and pasta breaks do you think the FSM would require a day? 3? 5? On the hour?

Mohammadans, christers, Etc. they are all about the same in their interpretation of scripture. Each of them claim primacy right to govern the world as they see fit even if it includes, and it does, killing people. They claim they are peaceful but the world stage betrays them. We do not owe them any respect and we certainly do not owe them any leeway to dictate what they are doing that takes away the rights of people who lived here before they came.

^ Sounds like a typical case of religious folks demanding special treatment to me.

When I lived in Northern Virginia (Loudoun County), there was a church in a business park a couple mikes away. Well, on Sunday mornings when they closed session, the local sheriffs would be out directing traffic because these numbnuts just can’t wait for normal traffic. So WE had to wait for THEM to pull out of the business park. And using public employees to boot. I’ll bet they didn’t pay the sheriff’s salaries for those hours.

^ Hear, hear, Old Git.

On the other hand, either Revenant’s idea of broadcasting the call to prayer at the wrong times, or the battling temples side by side would make for some interesting times to say the least–!

Fundamentalists of all sorts cannot be allowed to gain control of free, secular governments. That is why we as atheists must be ever vigilant.

Hence, I make no apology for reiterating…

The sooner that ALL religion is banned, except between consenting adults in private, the better!

For the avoidance of doubt, I consider that places of so-called worship are deemed to be ‘private’ – provided they do not call the ‘faithful’ to prayer in such a way that it impinges on others who do not share their faith.
