Quoting from the article quoted on Daily Kos:
"Brothers and Sisters, I have been seriously considering forming a (Christian) grassroots type of organization to be named "The Christian National Registry of Atheists" or something similar. I mean, think about it. There are already National Registrys for convicted sex offenders, ex-convicts, terrorist cells, hate groups like the KKK, skinheads, radical Islamists, etc.
This type of "National Registry" would merely be for information purposes. To inform the public of KNOWN (i.e., self-admitted) atheists." [END QUOTE]
I agree with the rest of the article that this is, at this moment, merely a trial balloon, but it is a potentially serious trial balloon...and unfortunately--as we all know--many of these actually wind up flying high.
Check out the article (and the many comments). This may be a "nothing" right now, but in our current social/political climate, the potential is here for something that could, gradually and eventually, become virulent.
