Catholic League president Bill Donohue explains why the Catholic League is starting a new initiative aimed at atheists:
Approximately 80 percent of Americans are Christian, and 96 percent celebrate Christmas. Of the 20 percent who are not Christian, non-believers make up the largest segment, though the number of self-identified atheists is tiny. David Silverman, president of American Atheists, knows this to be true, which is why he is frantically trying to inflate his base. “We want people to realize that there may be atheists in their family,” he told the New York Times, “even if those atheists don’t even know they are atheists.”

There does seem to be a culture of adult babies, so there is precedent, sort of.

Permalink Reply by Kacie Tsao on December 10, 2011 at 8:13pm You never really know with Ozma. He likes to keep people guessing. I think he just makes weird videos with homoerotic undertones for the shock factor and because he's... uh, really pretty in drag? (Ozma's the guy with the blond afro.)

Also has a thing for magic mushrooms, I believe. He got in trouble for doing a show where female dancers wore flesh-toned unitards with realistic breasts painted on and a mushroom symbol over the crotch. C'mon, conservatives, they were clothed.

Oh, No! More pairs of youngsters in white shirts and ties coming to the door. Hope they at least bring Girl Guide cookies.
