In reply to the discussion: Non-believers taking college campuses by storm [View all]Moonwalk
(2,322 posts)I was stuck in the bad-old days when everyone from Jews-for-Jesus to the baptist preacher with the megaphone harassed me on my way from one class to the next. I would have loved to have participated in all those events. Just to annoy those people back for annoying me.
And now, a prediction: by the psychic powers given to me by the exploding meteor over Russia....I predict.....
Fox News, picking up on this will go crazy about atheists killing off young people's faith in god--they will likely interview said atheists in some rude fashion in an attempt to get the to say something damning (editing what they say will help). Maybe they'll even get some young Christian collegiate to bear witness against them. I predict that Fox will declare that this war on god has taken over college campuses. Which is why everyone should vote against the government funding college education and President Obama who wants kids to go to college.
I also predict that every televangelist will be all over this as well, AND I predict that some magazine/newspaper will pick it up and title it "the death of god on campus?" AND...hysteria will briefly reign among unbelievers who will give a lot of money to people who promise to make it all stop. All this will reach a fevered, ridiculous pitch before most people (the semi-rational ones) realize that the number of atheists really hasn't gone up by that much, they've just become vocal and visible unlike in the past when they were quiet and invisible.
Virtual bets on my prediction anyone? Or additions?
