Yes, it is true that I have toasted a particular sector of atheists lately for their cherry-picking arguments with Christians, but here’s an account of two Christians with atheists for neighbors who have received a revelation that the neighbors — as epitomized in their [[agave|agaves]] — are manifestations of the [[antichrist]]. Let’s subtitle this “cactus torture“.
Also read this.
You don’t do stuff like this to an agave even if you are making [[tequila]].
At the root of this seems to be a bumper sticker that says “Freedom from Religion”. Now, being a good agnostic, I don’t feel that abolishing religion is going to end all wars as militant atheists always say (after all, who mans the military test ranges?) but I am also a staunch civil libertarian. How many times have I had some plagiarized image of [[Calvin and Hobbes|Calvin]] kneeling at a cross presented to me while I drive? If I have to live with W stickers poking me in the eye, others can live with opinions they don’t like. Multilating property is wrong and this is no better than the appearance of Nazi slogans on a synagogue even though the “Christian” couple denies any such intention.
