Friendly Atheist Contest #41: Atheists and Pants

Last time, I ran this contest:

Taking a cue from this list…

Replace any word from the title of, or a line from, a book about atheism… with the word “Pants.”

For example, “The Pants Delusion” or “Atheism: The Case Against Pants.”

(If you use a line from a book, give us the name of the book and the page number!)

Here are the Top 10 answers (with submitters):

Funny and creative answers will have a shot at winning.

Good luck!

Of course, its a baby meat grinding plant with the blood seeping through the wood.

silly atheists should have used iron.

There’s probably no Atheist Station. Now stop worrying and enjoy your life.

Theists are disguising their churches in order to covertly gather information about the atheist agenda.

What goes on in a building titled “Atheist Station”?

In an extensive model railway setup, Thomas the Tank Engine discovers that there’s not really a Mr. Conductor.

That sign on the side is written wrong. It should say “Pretend God is just”

You know when people stop you on the street and say “Have you found Jesus?”. Jesus knows those guys are looking for him, so he’s hiding out there. It’s the last place anyone would think to look for him.
hoverFrog

It’s an obscure Bill and Ted reference. The creator of the “good robot us’s” was an atheist.

Station!

They are making robot replacements for religious leaders throughout the world and setting them to gradually become more reasonable and secular. The new robot US president is a significant improvement over the flesh puppet you had for the past 8 years.
Paul Lundgren

Remember the first rule of the Atheist Station: You don’t talk about the Atheist Station.

But I’m sure it involves PZ Myers feeding Ray Comfort to a tank full of squid.

I don’t know, but I’m sure that at least the food is better than those crappy bread cookie things they serve at the Christian Station.

Skeptical sheep keep themselves from being fleeced.

They’re probably reciting their own version of the Pledge of Allegiance:

“I pledge atheism to the blog of the Friendly Atheists of America, and to the red brick on which it stands: one Station undoing God, the invisible, with Hilarity and Jesting for all.”
Polly

This STATION is run by the Devil himself to gather all you heathens into the express train to Hell!

Nah, we’re friendly atheists, remember? And with friends like us, they don’t need enemas. ;^D

Kids go free!
Andre Pena

It’s the place where all atheists go to lose their pants.
Ubi Dubius

No! It’s a trap! When an atheist, thinking he has found a haven for his life of debauchery, walks through the door, holy water automatically sprinkles on his head, immediately baptising him, filling his heart with the holy spirit! Within minutes, he is tithing, proselytizing, and being an all around jerk.
BigHeathenMike

A large train engine sits inside, quietly saying to itself, “I think I can, I think I can, I think I can”, while, at the same time, a snarky atheist sits in the rafters quietly answering each line with, “Trains can’t think, trains can’t think, trains can’t think….”
Weemaryanne

If I told them once I told them a hundred times, “If you’re going to breed babies for stewing then you really ought to paint the building in some inconspicuous color.”

But would anybody listen to me? — oh, nooooo…..

> What horrifying, frightening, shocking things take place inside this building…?

Well, if their website is any indication, they’re doing a Large Type Readers Digest edition of The God Delusion.
Emily

It’s a secret athiest factory that is ran by radical, baby-eating, devil worshipping heathens. They steal babies, run them through extremely painful machines that turn them into world hating, angry people who want to stop Christmas. And the ones that don’t make the cut, get sent to their sister plant and are turned into right-wing extremists (although I can’t specify how they do it, but it does have something to do with priests with pedophilic tendencies).

When you see a train, do you think that it could have appeared suddenly or do you think it was made? If a train has a maker then so must the atheist. The atheist station is where we build them.

I think Yuri has a winner here. I can imagine Lewis Black shouting it on The Daily Show.

This reminds me of a joke……

At the train station, a little boy goes up to the conductor and asks “Mr. Conductor, if big cows make baby cows and big people make baby people, why don’t big trains make baby trains?”

The conductor replies: “Well, little boy, We’re Amtrak, we always pull out on time.”

It’s obviously the meeting place for the hardcore, radical, left-wing, liberal, god-hating, nazi-loving, baby-eating, in-the-minority atheists to hammer out their agenda to destroy the country, which they’ll then pass on to Barack Obama so he can force it on the majority.
(I hear they also rent it out on the side as a whorehouse/gay wedding chapel.)
Ida

What is going on in that red house: Celibacy!
Ron Stauffer

Probably all the above! Those who will be offended, will be offended. Those of us who are unbelievers, will be blessed by the the knowledge of reason and the REAL TRUTH!

It obviously is a laboratory where atheist scientists struggle to gene-manipulate bananas, to get bananas in a form, which doesn’ fit into the palm of your hands so perfectly!!

Atheist Station. Babies go in… McDonald’s Secret Sauce comes out.

Zeus only knows what goes on behind those closed doors.
