Oh yes! Stick it to the irrational crazy people. Funny how when we say that perhaps, as atheists, we’re not wild about having our tax money go to 300-foot Christmas trees every year, we’re pernickity PC fools who take offense to everything. But if you take offence to free expression because it takes the piss out of your religion, you’re just cultural. Conclusion: if you have a logical and reasonable argument, you’re just a bigot. If you’ve got an insane belief that your people have held for centuries, criticism of that tradition is unacceptable.
