Attention Campers: The Word of the Day is Value...

During my daily Google search, avoiding dials, I stumbled on...Camp Quest, the summer camp for atheists and agnostics.

Hmm. You don't say! I thought it was the caffeine withdrawal headache playing tricks on me. But they actually do normal fun stuff like capture the flag,
The team names included the Flaming Messiahs, a nod to the incinerated "Touchdown Jesus" sculpture north of Cincinnati struck by lightning last week, and the Dinosaur Jesus Riders, whose cheer goes like this: "Yeehaw, ride that Jesus!" [USAToday.com]
I went to a Christian-based summer camp for a few years. Partaking in the usual crafting, water sports and archery games. Never once did we sit around bashing Jews or chanting, "Guess what atheists. When you die...NOTHING HAPPENS!*" But if their values are based on bashing ours (and every other faithful individual), then they're missing out on a lot of boondoggle tips.

Atheist camp indeed. Didn't they already film something like that for MTV? Oh yes...it's called Jersey Shore.
