Bill Donohue declares war on Frosty the Snowman
Edited on Tue Dec-14-10 02:10 AM by onager
As part of a "re-branding," a YMCA in NYC's West Village has dumped Santa Claus for Frosty the Snowman.

Naturally, this lit the short fuse of Bill Donohue and his fax machine the Catholic League. He's also pissed that the former Young Man's CHRISTIAN Association is re-branding itself as "The Y."

"Christmas is not about Jack Frost; it's not about snowmen," fumed Bill Donohue of the Catholic League. "We're not talking about some secular organization that has no religious roots. If they can't celebrate Christmas, then they should check out. What a bunch of cowards."

Just the other night, I saw the Cowboy from the Village People on TV. Maybe the New Y can hire him as a spokesperson. That should improve Bill's attitude.

Oh, and though I be but a lowly evil, bitter atheist...in the spirit of the jolly Xmas season...

And so I'm offering this simple phrase,
Especially for Bill Donohue,
Although it's been said many times, many ways,
You're a douchebag. Fuck you.

3. Bill is a Attention Whore of the worst kind
Anything for attention and his Catholic League is not part of the Catholic Church.

6. He is no more a spokesperson for Catholics than my dog
And, my dog makes much more sense anyway.

7. Just once, I'd like to hear the Pope tell Donahue to STFU
If he wants to speak for Catholics, why isn't he a priest?

8. There is a document by Anselm of Canterbury called
Cur Deus homo.

I believe dogs have a good bit to say about matters religious, which may explain why such are styled dogma.

9. Frosty is more reliable than JeZeus...
He said I'll be back again someday and it seems he keeps his promise at least one a year somewhere. But how many times has JeZeus returned in the last two millennia? Is there even any verifiable proof that he came the first time? No.

Go Frosty! lol!
