CNN has this “Belief” Blog page that
gives all sides a chance to present their point of view. And there usually is a
few thousand typical dumbed down American “Duh!” comments made and repeated
hundreds of cliché times perhaps by a few dozen regular trolls left and right
for the sake of balance and appearance of modern style “Journalism”.
This past weekend I think they had this
piece about Todd Stiegel being the new face of Atheism in America. He has spent
something like three and a half million dollars on billboards on buses selling
the new Atheist religion and or dogmas of belief in anti-theism, is that a new
word?
Well I am all well and glad that the
Atheists are getting out of the closet for free of past fears that some red neck bible thumpers
and Wayne Lapierre kill ya with a gun dandy lobbyist types will kill
you for not believing in the angry desert god of the mono-theists (sounds like
a disease?).
Todd’s bio about getting to the point
of being a good Catholic Boy and giving up the faith when he realized in
college, after reading the bible, that it is a poorly constructed OT and NT
piece of uninspired writing – the bio leaves out the 100,000 word book that
should fill in the gap between uninspired bible book stuff and how he got to
Atheist.
Maybe he is just a Areligionist like me and wasting all his time on
the dogma of that Atheist shit.
The CNN piece sounded like it was a
polished knock off of Todd’s Foundation’s mimeographed PR handout appealing for
mo’ money, mo’ money like any other whoring church, synagogue, mosque, temple,
storefront on the planet.
Of course Todd is soft spoken and
affable and lives in laid back North Carolina where he presently makes his base
trying to spend the billions his family made in chemicals or Pharmas or
something like that.
Three and a half million Todd – chump change!
Time to pump the chumps for their change?
Todd is no loud mouthed drunk like
Hitchens or over educated academic don like Dawkins.
Stiefel and his real long term agenda,
whatever it is, is tied up presently, short term, in with a coalition of other
middle of the road, so-called non-religious but money collecting types, the
Secular Coalition of America.
Whatever.
