Gothamist points out a Times article that highlights how Southern Baptists are converging on New York City. Tien observes that New York already has "one group of fools campaigning for religious conversions, we don't need two."
I have a better idea:
"LIVE FROM MADISON SQUARE GARDEN! ONE NIGHT ONLY ON LIVE PAY-PER-VIEW! IT'S THE SOUTHERN BAPTISTS GOING UP AGAINST THE JEWS FOR JESUS! SPECIAL APPEARANCES BY THE SCIENTOLOGISTS AND THE LAROUCHIES*! CALL YOUR CABLE OPERATOR TODAY!"
*hey, they count as a cult, right?
Come to think of it, I haven't seen any LaRouch people out here...
geez. i moved north to get away from them. (well, that's not quite why. but still.) i think southern baptists' pushiness may well be the reason i have an aversion toward public religious declarations of any type.
