Angry Atheist Harris Founds O.A.F.

LONG BEACH, CA - Fed up with religion distracting people from important world problems, neuroscientist and author Sam Harris has created the Offended Atheists Foundation. By funding books and films by grumpy atheists, O.A.F. aims to alert the public to religion's diversion of attention from human suffering. "Science can determine morality with the same rigor used to prove global cooling and the danger of Alar on apples," said Harris in a recent interview at the TED Conference. "Meanwhile, religion wastes time with blood drives, food drives, clothing drives, aid to the homeless, and visiting the elderly." O.A.F. has already concluded deals with several offended atheists, including biologist Richard Dawkins and comic Bill Maher. Dawkins will write a book on secular grief counseling entitled, Your Mom is Dead: Let's Get Pizza, while Maher is producing a comedy called Hay You! in which the acerbic funnyman showcases his wit as he tricks and belittles the Amish.

A friend of mine recently channeled Madalyn Murray O'Hair. She was lamenting that she could not see this in her time. My buddy still can't walk standing fully upright. He said the experience proved that she really did have a foreign object strategically placed deep within her sigmoid colon.

I'm just glad to know that THEY won't be wasting time with blood drives, food drives, clothing drives, aid to the homeless, and visiting the elderly. In fact, maybe they'll clone "Doctor Death"!

The cloning of Dr. Death is very possible. They have all the science.
