Oklahoma Joes Fundraiser Kerfuffle

[Conan71]

My dog is a Catholic. 

The cats are all atheist though.

One of them definitely learned it from my pack of heathens I'm sure

I may approach them to see about helping with a fundraiser to send me to "Burning Man" camp.
I hear it's a hoot.

The only reason you can really call it an atheist camp is because it lacks religion,

That is categorically untrue. Do I need to pull some more information directly from the organization you claim to speak for?

A camp lacking religion is called a camp lacking religion.

A camp which says that it was created specifically for atheists, discusses how to avoid being bullied by christians, and has classes on how to thinking critically and not supernaturally is an atheist camp.

There are Christian zealots and Muslim Zealots, but I've never known a Zealot more kooky than you and I'm starting to find Scientology with it's spaceships and h-bombs more centered in reality.

Atheists are always so feisty.

My step-cats are from satan, does that make them atheists?

Yes, it was designed to give atheist children a place to go without the religious crap of all of the other camps. 

Such a cop out.  There are TONS of camps out there that don't bring up religion at all.  YMCA camps for instance.

No.  Satanists have faith.

Best post in this thread.

Bad analogy.
Young Man's Christian Association

The mission of the YMCA is to put Judeo-Christian principles into practice through programs that build healthy spirit, mind, and body for all.

The YMCA is for:
Youth Development - nurturing the potential of every child and teen
Healthy Living - improving the nation's health and well-being
Social Responsibility - giving back and providing support to our neighbors

The Y is a powerful association of men, women, and children of all ages and from all walks of life joined together by a shared passion: to strengthen the foundations of community.

Except for the whole Young Men's Christian Organization thing. 

Perhaps the Y day camps aren't at least I don't recall there ever being an overt Christian message at the Westside Y Day Camp.  However, the YMCA's Camp Takatoka is very overtly Christian-oriented, or at least it was when I went in the late '70's and early '80's.

I'm done with you.  You really have no clue what you are talking about.

Right...considering that YMCA stands for Young Men's Christian Association.

I have a feeling this has not been a good week for him.

So, if a camp is open to everyone, including atheists, discusses how to avoid being bullied (though I really don't know where you are getting this from, I'm starting to think you are making stuff up at this point), and how to think critically (yeah, no classes on how to not think supernaturally), it is an atheist camp?  THIS IS A SECULAR SCIENCE CAMP.  Just because atheists are involved in something does not make it a specifically atheist organization, event, or activity.
