Sedition Is the New Black- But Atheists Can't Wear It

sedition, treason, teabag, teabagging, tea party, glenn, beck, asshat, stupid,
Glenn Beck, he of the new twinkie defense, has called for all the "right wing cells" to get together and plot some more teaparties, or something, but he doesn't just want anyone to attend We Surround You Friday. Oh, no. He does not want atheists.

The second of Glenn Beck's Nine Principles makes that abundantly clear:

2. I believe in God and He is the Center of my Life.

For once, we're happy to be automatically excluded.

For an in depth look at why this whole things is unbelievably stupid, please visit the Accidental Historian. I don't really need to say anything about this, AH already said it, better than I could.

    I love Accidental Historian. I just spent way too much time on his site reading. And his take on this is very very well written and makes perfect sense.

    I ran into Geds on the Slacktivist's site, and I was thrilled when he started his own blog. No way could I have explained that issue as well as he did.

    It's getting to the point where I'm more pissed off by the abuse of English than I am the abuse of logic, democracy, atheists, women and gays. I think it's some sort of defense mechanism.
