Mmmhmmm! And eat them too! Hadn't you heard that the Christians perform human sacrifice in their temples every Sunday, and eat the actual body and blood of their sacrificial victim? It's a frightening death cult, I tell ya!

What more evidence do you need that the libs just plain HATE Christians?

Was the idiot who came up with policy fired for religious insensitivity?
