The Atheists, Humanists, & Agnostics at the University of Wisconsin-Madison discovered something incredible when it came to putting up a display in the State Capitol: “Practically anyone can put anything they want in the Capitol.” All you had to do was fill out an application.
So they did. For three fictional groups, including two honoring gods from Game of Thrones:

Atheists


Why do some atheists get their jimmies rustled by religious displays? I mean, if God does not exist why get bothered by a Nativity Scene? It should be equivalent to a Spongebob scene or a penis statue or a bloody vajia display...to them at least. It's just a waste of time getting your jimmies rustled about something that doesn't exist, right?

I don't really have a problem with this, but I just don't understand why these groups feel the need to actively display their hatred of faith.

Until they give equal representation to R'hller and The Drowned God, I am boycotting Wisconsin cheese.

putting up a display for people to enjoy isn't about hating faith.

TD should put up a TD display in the state cap for Xmas

I really wish they wouldn't lump us agnostics in with the dumb annoying atheists.

I'm cool with that.

Would love to go laugh at those who think they are laughing at me.
