The Mittster doesn't look very happy, though...

He was hoping for Joseph Smith.

I was bored the other night.

Note the file name.

I love Ron Paul's little face in there and Bachman's typical dumb shit stare.

like he wonders if he is considered one of the money changers in the temple. Bwaaaahahahaha!

I don't think mocking religion is anything other than counterproductive. I certainly know how I feel when I saw the postcards with a watermelon patch in front of the White House. We may think it's funny because we get the joke, but the other side will not and they can use this imagery to paint us as hateful bigots.

Coming from a very long line of dissenters and surly peasants s I do.

that we're already painted that way, by them. The Right smears the Left (everybody from the President on down) every day on every medium that exists. We don't get to tweak their noses about their worship of St. Ronald with a few daubs of paint on a wall in Tampa? Please.

Mocking religion on DU is something you're going to have to live with.

I'm not religious so I am not sure if you have to worship inside of a belief system.

The Right Wing's false idolatry of Reagan over Jesus.

Maybe it will make some Christians realize what frauds they are. Especially since Jesus was all about charity, mercy, and the universal brotherhood of man and Reagan was all about tax cuts for the rich, SDI and Iran/Contra.

Not to mention communion would be with jelly beans.

Now, the way they paint us as hateful bigots against god?

The judgement ship has sailed. I'm not worried about whether or not the religious will react badly. I'm sure they will. But this might help some doubters to look at their deities more critically, and help them see the absurdity of religion. And I'm all for that.

If you presented these worshipers with some of Reagan's actions without his name being attached to them, they'd demonize him.
