(93 posts)I don't think mocking religion is anything other than counterproductive. I certainly know how I feel when I saw the postcards with a watermelon patch in front of the White House. We may think it's funny because we get the joke, but the other side will not and they can use this imagery to paint us as hateful bigots.

(109 posts)that we're already painted that way, by them. The Right smears the Left (everybody from the President on down) every day on every medium that exists. We don't get to tweak their noses about their worship of St. Ronald with a few daubs of paint on a wall in Tampa? Please.

(32,723 posts)The Right Wing's false idolatry of Reagan over Jesus.
Maybe it will make some Christians realize what frauds they are. Especially since Jesus was all about charity, mercy, and the universal brotherhood of man and Reagan was all about tax cuts for the rich, SDI and Iran/Contra.
Not to mention communion would be with jelly beans.

(20,730 posts)Now, the way they paint us as hateful bigots against god?
The judgement ship has sailed. I'm not worried about whether or not the religious will react badly. I'm sure they will. But this might help some doubters to look at their deities more critically, and help them see the absurdity of religion. And I'm all for that.
