We will be featuring these posters regulary to counter the absurd notion that the US is a Christian nation. We have pointed out that the Article 11 of the Treaty of Tripoli that was written shortly after this nation was founded states "the United States of America is not, in any sense, founded on the Christian religion."
Unapologetics are sarcastic, critical posters that take popular theological beliefs and counter them to point out just how absurd and ridiculous they really are. Maybe it feels more intellectual to use sophisticated arguments, but sometimes an image and short phrase are sufficient to unmask the pretensions behind religious pablum.
It's may be more productive to laugh at silly arguments than to take them seriously. There is a time for philosophical, atheological arguments and there is a time for laughter, humor, and sarcasm.
Of interest, Jeb Bush's dragon lady, Katherine Harris, has a new crusade. She wants to tell Americans about the 'great lie' that the US is not a Christian nation. This is the same old conservative story similar to another that the US was founded by white people.
