Anyway, I'm still tickled pink that an organization called 'Center for Inquiry' has founded an official Blasphemy Day complete with a Blasphemy contest and a Free Expression essay contest.
From the site:
To encourage free expression and to celebrate Blasphemy Day 2009 (September 30), CFI and its sister organization, the Council for Secular Humanism, are sponsoring a Blasphemy Contest.
Blasphemy: n. the act of denying or scoffing at God or God's alleged attributes.
To enter, all you have to do is create a phrase, poem, or statement that would be or would have been considered blasphemous. Entries may take any form (haiku anyone?), but must be 20 words or less. The top 5 winners will receive CFI t-shirts with their submission printed on the shirt. In addition to the shirt, the first place winner will also receive a mug imprinted with the winning phrase, recognition in Free Inquiry magazine, general publicity, and, naturally, eternal damnation. Entries must be received by midnight, October 1, 2009
Here's a video about it:
P.S: the Freedom of Expression essay contest runs until January 5, 2010
