November 2003 | Thanksgiving Issue
 Howdy, Pilgrim! The holidays are here and they have many of us by the throats, and our pResident by the.... This time of year reeks of religion has been known to drive otherwise sane people to drink. If your family and friends are all "Jesus, Jesus, Jesus" on your ass send this newsletter to them. And meet us in our new discussion area, where the people who usually send me nasty personal notes can leave their comments for all to see. Join in on the fun.
The Valley of the Dry Bones
Miss Poppy reviews this turgid end-times thriller and declares it a peach! John Turner, born again Christian sheriff, is the only thing that stands between Christian order and secular chaos. Set in Boise in the year 2015 the author expertly depicts grim pre-apocalyptic social decay. And like most Christian novels, sexual tension inadvertently spills over into hot erotic action. It takes a genius to write this badly.
In Jesus' Name
Read the story of the slave ship "The Good Ship Jesus." Learn about the Portuguese slave warehouse and prison "Fort Jesus." And find out about "Christian Hill," where the seeds of Fundamentalism were first sown by Christian oil barons.
Imagine what the world would be like if Christians had the personal integrity to do things in their own name, rather than in the name of Jesus.
Taliban, American Style
We can be thankful that we live in a country where women are free: free to work, free to marry whom they choose, free to voice their opinion..., or are they? Find out about fundamentalist Christian polygamous clans, ignored by the government, that isolate and sexually molest teenaged girls right here in the good old US of A.
November 28—Buy Nothing Day!
The day after Thanksgiving is the biggest shopping day of the year. This year, join with millions of others to Buy Nothing. Plan ahead. Imagine one day in the year where you don't enter any stores or spend any money. With personal credit card debt in the US topping $711,000,000,000 we can all enjoy giving the plastic time to cool.
