Comrades, Hobby Lobby owner Steven Green has gotten in trouble with the feds for, either knowingly or unknowingly, purchasing "black market Biblical items" for his Bible Museum.

According to reports, Green "is being investigated by Customs & Border Protection reportedly for attempting to smuggle as many as 300 age-old cuneiform tablets from Iraq into the U.S. via Israel, labeling them "tiles." "

Even though this tablet incident has nothing to do with Hobby Lobby not providing birth control, it is good enough revenge. We liberal atheists are gleeful that Hobby Lobby is finally getting their comeuppance for something, anything! We don't care how or why, as long as Christians are punished.

As the Bible that we don't believe in says, "Therefore whoever resists the authorities resists what God has appointed, and those who resist will incur judgment." -Romans 13:2

Mr. Green is a hypocrite because he doesn't follow Biblical commands, but it is hard for us to hold him to it since the Bible is a fictional novel. This would be along the lines of getting Santa in trouble for delivering black market presents. Or punishing the Easter Bunny for obtaining black market chocolate. It would be wrong, if it was real.

This incident has ended in a quandary for progressive atheists. In order for us to be outraged at Mr. Green over the tablets:

- The tablets must be illegally obtained.
- The tablets are only illegal if they are against customs regulations.
- Customs only prohibits historical artifacts.
- If the tablets are fictional, they are not historical.
- If the tablets are not historical, there is no crime here.

To logically rail against Mr. Green, we would have to admit that the tablets are non-fictional and that the Bible is a real, historical account.

Comrades, what should we do?

P.S. Let's refrain from further using the term "black market" as it appears racist. I suggest "undocumented merchandise."

As the government is in the habit of perennially giving you s**t, be sure to return it fairly and threefold.

When all else fails, try brute force. It often gets the point across.

That last one was quite interesting. While we're quoting things from the People's Bible:

"And so did Nikolai of Minsk come into the Regional Bureau of Leningrad. He had come to pay tribute and to renew his license to keep living for the first time. He had come a long way to the Bureau, and he was hungry and cold. He entered the Bureau and felt warmed, and then was directed to the canteen to be partially filled, and then to the wall to cheerfully accept the remainder in the form of nightstick blows. And then he ventured into the Holy Chamber of Bureaucracy, to pay his tribute to the gods Marx and Lenin. He entered the candle-lit chamber, and approached the copper and brass altar in reverence for his rulers. In his pocket, his entire wages for the quarter. He took them out, and stuffed them into the slot in a furious frenzy, exacerbated by pointed bayonet pressed against his back. He sung a song of wonder to his rulers as he heard a shredder whizz away in the bowels of the altar, for it was the right and honorable thing to do. He offered his rulers a goodbye, and set on his way to the Room of Waiting in the People's Department of Licensing. He did enter the Room of Waiting, drab, beige, and fluorescently lit, and let the door slam shut, for the hydraulic cylinder had failed many years ago. On the floor, countless folding metal chairs, all filled with fellow Comrades who had made the pilgrimage to this Holy Bureau, and even more leaned against the wall. He set his eyes upon this sight, and cried out in pain and agony to the god Marx, saying that "The lines are very long, and the licenses, they are so expensive!" Yes, he did pull the number 404, yet the electronic board bore the number 13. However, Marx did hear his cry, and delighted in his pain, for he had desired for many ages for something of his to be long." -82 Marx 19:17

This is most revolutionary. I would also like to submit the proposal to stop using the term "stolen car" and instead use the term "pre-owned vehicle".

The criteria that it be real was thrown out the window of our ox cart on its journey to the World of Next Tuesday™ quite some time ago, Comrade. Examples abound. Uh oh! One of those constant raging hellstorms is approaching me. HELP! Aghhhh...
