How not to make friends and influence people

If you're the Freedom from Religion Foundation, why not protest a stamp honoring Mother Theresa? No, it's not a joke; they're really trying to make the claim that no religious figure is worth honoring on a postage stamp--taken to the logical extreme, no one whose shadow has ever darkened the door of a church would be eligible for such honors.

It's as if they've been taking PR lessons from the silicone-injected airheads at PETA. If these militant atheists are trying to demonstrate that a certain lack of logic and morality proceeds from a lack of faith--at least their version of militant atheism--they're doing a great job.

Is someone making them buy that stamp and no other?

they may be on to something. no religious figures on stamps = no Obama stamp when his time comes.

yeah, but that would also have eliminated the Elvis stamp.
