A new wave of "missionaries" is heading toward a college quad near you. The "NoGod Squad" is sending out hordes of enthusiastic atheist speakers, fully trained in the doctrines of atheism, to colleges and universities across the nation.
Their goal: To set up in public areas at those universities and harangue theistic students with insults, name-calling, and epithets, all designed to convince those religious students to put away their Bibles and read Christopher Hitchens, instead. Thousands of these New Atheism Evangelists (NEAs) will preach the gospel of atheism in the public square, taking a lesson from Christian evangelists from the past, like "Holy Hubert" and his fellows.
Wielding psychological tools like swords, they will cut through the superstition and apologetics and show theists the "true path" to freedom from mythology and early childhood indoctrination in churches all across America. We talked to one bewhiskered recent graduate from the NoGod Evangelism Center (NGEC), who told us, "We're gonna slice and dice Christianity right out of those college students. Our message of amorality and license is carefully designed to plow through the mud of theism and replace it with the clear waters of disbelief."
Watch for these evangelists of rationality at a quadrangle near you soon!

Could keep them busy for quite a while.

"It's being reported on the looney left that Atheists are organizing to indoctrinate our students!"
If only.
