It's a conspiracy!

The Rosecrucians got to him! Or the Priory of Whosis! Someone with a cross and a large funny hat!

And in further wingnuttery from the Pope

Papal encyclical says atheism to blame for injustices, cruelty

Yeah, because, you know, things like the Crusades, or the ongoing family feud between Sunni and Shite Islam, or any of that shit... religious fundementalism and overzealousness couldn't be to blame.

It was really all over who got to play the top hat in Monopoly.

Edit: And even more wingnuttery: Sudan protesters call for execution of teacher who students name a teddy bear 'Mohammed'.

Yeah.... you know, I don't recall ever hearing of a crowd of militant atheists demanding someone be executed for insisting that there is a God.....
