This link was given to me by a couple of friends on PalTalk ... these are atheist lyrics to the tunes of Christams Carols ... I hope you enjoy them as much as I did Freethinkers of Ventura County Atheist CarolsMy favourite (and it was difficult to select a favourite) is "The World of Richard Dawkins" |

Actually, I'm going to add a challenge to everyone ... let's see if we can come up with some of our own ... but we won't restrict it to Christmas Carols ... atheist parody lyrics to any hymns or contemporary music ... If we get a good collection of them, I'll make a page on my website for them (or Maverick may want to add them to the A/Anon site) Another parody site for you to check out is Bob Rivers & Twisted TunesModified to add Twisted Tunes link |

I know this bit of information is being posted late, but the Atheist Network aired godless holiday music on Christmas Eve and Day. Some Bob Rivers songs made the holiday lineup. Very funny songs.
I don't think I can pick my favorite Christmas Carol from the first post's link. I like almost all of them. Thanks for posting them AuntieSocial!

Hm, I'm thinking.... I don't know if we have already determined this, but I think we shouldn't do ones that are already atheist carols and change the lyrics (like jingle bells and Walkin' in a Winter Wonderland- they don't mention god in the first place)
Maybe "We 3 Kings?" "12 days of Christmas?"

We 3 kings
As Atheists, we want you to see
Our belief in no deity
Evolution
Is our solution
To how things have come to be.
oh-oooooh
Creatures come from the same spawn
Each one trying not to be gone
They're competing
Just for eating
Best adapted will move on.
We doooon't...
Worship Satan, don't rebel
'Cause there's no heaven AND no hell
Our belief's heretic
Not pathetic
And I guess that's just as well
Be-cauuuuse....
Most theists seem to insist
That our morals don't exist
These assumers
Made those rumors
That aren't true, but they persist.
Life for us is lots of fun
Not at the expense of someone
And still not seing
Any being
We're going to when life is done.
So we are all really okay
We're not restricted every day
By some guy
Up in the sky
Having to do just what he'll say.
That's it, unless somebody else wants to add on. So what if it's too many verses?

Ugh, I am so majorly late in seeing your post, pie! That was awesome!! I would like your permission to post that on my website. I won't add the actual page until sometime in the future, but I can certainly start working on it (just post-pone the linking til sometime around September)
If anyone else has some contributions, I would be more than happy to include them. I will attribute the contribution to your board nick and the page will, of course, have a link to the Atheists Anonymous site/board (almost every page on my site does).

About the Free Thinkers of Ventura Carols...I especially loved "Away with the Danger"..here's the first two lines:
"Away with the dangerous lies we've been told,
Of deities, virgins, and streets paved with gold."
and "Joy to the World"...I always tell my kids that if dad wasn't around I would have married Bill Nye...a scientist who can entertain kids...does it get any better?
I'm definitely printing that page!
