I specially like the Covenant one. Quite “disinformative”. And Tony Miller’s second one (Souls of Children in Jeopardy. Parents to Blame) is great in the same sense.

You forgot to mention that most soothing title to one of the stories offered at one of the places you linked to…”The Faggot Deal-Maker & Caroline Kennedy”

I am glad their are atheists like yourself that remail friendly, because it helps balance out those like me, that are as extreme and angry,(though atheist) as some fundamentalist Christians who want to rid the world of those they see as evil.

I see it as the fundamentalists as evil.

I can just imagine some of the headlines now:

Godless Heathens Gather In Cult-like Fashion.

Souls of Children In Jeopardy. Parents To Blame.

Atheists Gather, Richard Dawkins Fails To Appear.

There oughta be a law. You know, one like Poe’s Law or Murphy’s Law. This law would say something like: “The more a story about atheists or atheism is passed on and re-told, the more likely it is to show the atheists or atheism in a negative light.”

If anybody wants to develop that, go ahead but don’t put my name on it, since the law would immediately have its effect on me.

Slander is eternal.
