Santa Claus and Skeleton nailed to a cross?

Post by Tiffany Dawn »

I have a question-

Is every Christian as offended as I am over this atrocity?
I feel as though this is Blasphamous Behavior and a desecration to the Cross-
What do you think?

If this guys message really was about being anti-materialistic, then set a ton of brand name shopping bags on fire and record that -.-
To sustain the belief that there is no God, atheism has to demonstrate infinite knowledge, which is tantamount to saying, “I have infinite knowledge that there is no being in existence with infinite knowledge".

I can see how this is offensive. Why the cross? But I will just turn my cheek and think to myself that the message was to contrast materialism (the dead santa clause) with purpose (the cross) in the holiday seasons. This message also shows that atheists are getting preachy. And we are the ones accused of shoving our morality down peoples throats... :pound:

Lol, so true.
