In your face, Lars Larson!
Dec. 19th, 2005 07:23 pmToday was supposed to be the day Lars Larson erected the symbol of Jesus Christ's death (not birth), the cross, in Pioneer Courthouse Square. He cancelled it because of "fear of vandalism," even though undoubtedly he could have had his horde of lemmings listeners guard it 24/7.
And guess what? Portland was hit by an ice storm today that paralyzed the city - so no cross could have been erected anyway.
Since fundie Christians are the masters at revisionism, I can play at it too. Either: 1.) G-d planned the ice storm to keep Lars from erecting his cross; 2.) G-d sent the ice storm to punish us all for Lars' cowardice; 3.) G-d sent the ice storm to punish all the hobgoblins who seemingly threatened the cross with vandalism and Lars with violence (although no one can find these hobgoblins).
