The Resistance appeared on Mill Ave at about 8pm. Almost every corner had been taken up with various entertainers, people doing Mill Ave work, and other functions. The first encounter that members of the Resistance had with anything related to their mission was an offhand conversation about Christian convictions between some common folk mingling.
Eventually, Al, Jim Coleman, and Valerie set up in front of the Post Office and were immediately met by Kazz and other members of the Resistance. Although, they were quickly siphoned away to a set up that Omar had taken at Urban Outfitters which became more of the Resistance corner than anything else—no preachers countered them at all.
Edwin wandered past during the night commenting that he and others had gone to check out the light rail.

[ March 6, 2009; 7:00 pm; ] Has it been a month already? It seems like only yesterday that some nice, moral religious people stole, shredded, stomped and destroyed one of our signs, leaving only the word “God?” untouched. I don’t have absolute confirmation, but my sources tell me that some of the kids from the ASU Campus Crusade claimed responsibility.
Whoever it was, if you read this then think about coming over and trying to defend your beliefs with words and evidence rather than theft and vandalism, or have you realized that your religion is indefensible but you just can’t give it up? I know it was tough when mommy had to admit that there really was no Santa Claus, but you got over that…didn’t you?
If you want to give me more evidence to show people what immature thieving cowards you are, then by all means try to steal and destroy another sign on Friday, but if you’re ready to step up and take your best shot at destroying our beliefs rather than our signs, then we’ll be waiting.
Just to be clear, I am not asking for a physical fight. You may well be physically brave enough to punch or even shoot me, and I am not interested in hurting you or becoming a martyr. What I don’t think you’re brave enough to do is put your beliefs on the table and critically examine them with an open mind. I don’t think you’ve even got the guts to state your beliefs and hear them refuted.
So please, search the Bible for good arguments and evidence, explore the nutty Creationist web sites and anything else you think will help you, then come out and prove me wrong.
