A Shrine to "No Belief"

by Greg Asimakoupoulos

Posted: December 14, 2008

Yet another governor raises eyebrows…

Out west in liberal Washington
the atheists think they have won.
Beside a Christmas tree there stands
a shrine to "No Belief."

A shrine that's just a silly sign
attesting there is no design
in history or the universe
and certainly no God.

Okay, that's their opinion
(uninformed as it is).

But why protest a Christmas tree
alongside a nativity?
Don't Christmas trees have pagan roots?
Aren't creches cultural?

The White House has a Douglas Fir.
It's what we do. Don't you concur?
An evergreen with twinkling lights
is just America.

Our PC left-wing governor
won't stand up to (she just ignores)
those Bozos with their Humbug ploys.
How foolish can you be?

And in despair I bowed my head.
Does Chris Gregoire think God is dead?
Or is she Ebenezer Scrooge
in need of Marley's ghost?
