It was on racism and how "they" have found that most people are racist against the non-majority. No matter if it against race, sex, sexuality. http://kska.org/2010/09/29/addressing-alaskans-healing-racism/ Very interesting listen!

Although, the last line of that snopes page is a little disconcerting: "Given the plentitude of e-mails we've received over the years expressing the very same sentiments as this letter, it... apparently does represent the genuine opinions of a not insubstantial readership base." Oh well.

This editorial is so fucking classic, I thought it needed to be transcribed for us here: "Letter to the Editor 'Reader voices strong opinion on atheists' It's time to stomp out atheists in America. The majority of Americans would love to see athesits kicked out of America. If you don't believe in God, then get out of this country. The United States is based on having freedom of religion, speech, etc., which means you can believe in God any way you want (Baptist, Catholic, Methodist, etc.), but you must believe. I don't recall freedom of religion meaning no religion. Our currency even says, "In God We Trust." So, to all the atheists in America: Get off our country. Atheists have caused the ruin of this great nation by taking prayer out of our schools and being able to practice what can only be called evil. I don't care if they have never committed a crime, atheists are the reason crime is rampant. Alice Shannon Soldotna" I seriously hope this is some sort of farce. Otherwise, there is no hope for a culture with people this ignorant.
