I had a few ideas of how to wrap up this series of Atheist Advent posts – a look at how politics and religion intersect, a review of my theories of why people (really) are religious, a disclaimer about the nature of offense in general.
I will spend some time on that last point. My intention in doing these posts over the past month isn’t to offend anyone – though of course, with any hot button topic, it may seem that way. Instead, my intention is to simply make readers – Beliebers or otherwise – consider some things in a way they may not have before.
So, with that said, the ultimate point is that, as serious as this stuff is on one hand, it’s good to have fun with it too.
For example, I came home a few days ago to find that someone had added an extra fictional superhero to the collection on our van. My first thought was some fundamentalist from a nearby church had seen the decals on our van and decided we were open to one more.
But turns out my mother-in-law, who got tagged herself earlier this year, thought it would be a perfect prank to play on me. (Luckily, I saw it before I drove all over town with this extra decal on our van!) 😉
And that seems like a great way to end this series.
Happy Merry Christmahanakwanzika to everyone!
