The Daily Zeitgeist

I’m not normally one to take to the streets, but today was an exception.

Today saw the Pope giving a vigil in Hyde Park; today was also the day those of us who have been called “militant atheists” – along with discontent catholics and lots of others too – took the streets of London. We marched from Hyde Park corner to Whitehall to show our disapproval of the state visit of this man who claims that condoms do not prevent HIV and that secularism and tolerance is causing the destruction of the UK.

There were speeches by Geoffrey Robinson, QC, the human rights campaigner Peter Tatchell, and the man who has been dubbed “Darwin’s Rottweiler” and author of “The God Delusion”, Richard Dawkins, amongst others.

I’ve got a few pictures up on Flickr, so please take a look by clicking on the pic below.

It is one of my favourites of the day. This guy appeared in a topless car with a megaphone and three “nuns” (two of whom were men) and started doing what can only be described as a very “Unholy Rap” about the Pope.

Priceless.
