Fun with street preachers.

Campus atheists are now playing Bullshit Bingo when the crazy preachers come to town!

Bonus points if you recognize the man in this picture...

Is that man someone of national renown?

I love the Bingo chart idea.

2. He's Tom Short, crazy campus preacher.

He travels around the country going to college campuses to deliver his nonsense.

He's visited the universities in Colorado about once a year for two decades.

Among college students and some atheist circles, he's pretty notorious.

not a bad gig. No work involved, all money he collects to live on is charitable giving, no tax.

5. I think that's a safe bet.

He has a reasonably professional-looking web site, so I'm betting he's well-funded:

4. "Preaching To Perverts & Whores"

Yes, that IS the title of the vid. Their marketing may need a little work...

"Today's perverts, tomorrow's pedophiles and rapists!"

Street preachers outside the Mons Venus strip club in Tampa, FL. Until the cops show up, and the perps get all whiny about their First Amendment rights. Which they believe seem to include a bullhorn, somehow.
