Atheist group at UTSA again offers porn for bibles

SAN ANTONIO -- An atheist student group at UTSA is again offering to trade porn for bibles.

Atheist Agenda set up a booth on the UTSA campus on the Northwest Side and asked students to bring in their bibles in exchange for pornographic magazines. The event is called "Smut for Smut" and, obviously, brings with it some big controversy.

"It is to send a message that the stuff in the bible, and the Quran, and the Torah, and all that sort of thing is, in our case worse, in our opinion worse, than pornography," explained UTSA student Kyle Bush.

"I can see that God can definitely use this for a greater purpose," UTSA student Alex Liu
said. "And I see a lot of Christian organizations coming together, you know, to be brothers and sisters standing up for their faith."

2. Where were they when I was in college?
I went to a college run by the Southern Baptists. I could have gotten stacks of Bibles to trade.

...free speech to me...a conceptual performance piece satirizing the penetration of religion into every facet of modern life?
Not that it'll be exactly...popular.

5. Seems like they were taking more than just the Christian Holy Bible from this quote...
"It is to send a message that the stuff in the bible, and the Quran, and the Torah, and all that sort of thing is, in our case worse, in our opinion worse, than pornography," explained UTSA student Kyle Bush.
