Open letter to my creepy neighbor

Why wouldn’t it be? The offender did it because of your professed religion. (I’m assuming religion is one of the classes listed in your state’s hate crime statute. It usually is.) Good luck getting it prosecuted, though.

Heh. S’ok. I realize that sometimes I’m the only one that gets what I’m saying. It’s like having a disease, I swear. :wink:

Anyhow, yeah. It kind of is a hate crime on a very small scale. What I was getting at, I think, is that religion being the root of the cause, even though it was just your little sign, is still vandalism the way that a desecrated church or synagogue would be. The tongue in cheek part was mostly over where we draw the line when it comes to the accusation and follow through. It might feel good to get back at them by ramping up like that (Og knows vengeance is the first thing on my mind when it comes to even small little injustices…) but for regular people who don’t make a lifelong habit out of screaming injustice and suing over every little hangnail, it takes a lot of work and effort. I think it’s neat that “hate crime” is not the first thing to cross your mind, in fact not even understanding how I got to that thought. It’s commendable to know that not everyone is so hyper sensitive. :cool:

I want a Chaos Inside sticker for my front door!

Every year my family does a HUGE hollowen haunted house, I mean HUGE. And every year the fundies across the street boards their windows up. I mean litteraly boards their windows up!! Their kids are home schooled, and during the 4 weeks the house is decorated the kids arent even allowed outside!!

This year they got even more clever and put a lighted cross in their front yard. /sigh…

What?! In Cambridge? I wouldn’t have thunk it. I don’t even believe it but if I put up a Krishna and someone ripped it down I’d be pissed. I’m sorry to hear that.

I mean of course I *believe * it, I just can’t believe it.

Nah, the rural Midwest.

Oh, well, now I believe it. :smiley:

Are there any places that still rent them?
I remember years ago (back when we rented the old Nintendo and games like Super Mario Bros. ) Radio Shack carried that type of stuff for weekly rentals.

Sigh…it’s schmucks like this guy that give the rest of us theists a bad name.

I’m just curious, did you actually see your neighbor vandalize the sign?

Also, while I don’t agree with destruction of property Lovecraft is dull and also a bad writer so I suggest you look into getting more entertaining signs.

What are “satanic toys”?

What’s up with fundy Christian hatred of Lovecraft, since it’s all fiction? Yeah, I know how they feel about Harry Potter, but do they actually think that the Cult of Cthulhu is real, and that there really are people out there praying “Ph’nglui mglw’nafh Cthulhu R’lyeh wgah’nagl fhtagn?”

(BTW, I just checked Tales of the Cthulhu Mythos out of the library. I never knew Stephen King’s Jerusalem’s Lot was based on Lovecraft!)

Of course, people pray to Cthulhu. Haven’t you heard the Shoggoth Prayer?

And check out their Solstice CD, too!

Who can forget what they did to Temple Beth Azathoth? Poor Mrs Rubenstern was so traumatized, she hasn’t made her famous Migo soup with matzoh balls since.
