- Get off the table! – Yeah, waiting for Mimi to offer that retort.
- Answers in Genesis: Believe in God or Die! – My interpretation of the ad — which is disturbing, regardless — is not that it’s okay to shoot atheists, but a rehashing of the old anti-atheism canard, “Without God in the mix, there can be no morality; if there is no Deity to value human life, it will not be valued by human beings, either.” The person being menaced in the ad is not atheists, but everyone.
