This shot is from a book display in the Religion section at Borders. I guess some Borders employee thought this was their “atheist” shelf, but one of these things is not like the others. Or did said employee imagine that Stark was enough to take on the atheists all by himself?
Actually, someone (presumably someone who does not like to read differing opinions) had flipped the books over so you couldn’t see the covers (including Stark’s) . . . as if these books were pornographic and they don’t want little children to see them inadvertently.
I shared the picture, as an interesting counter to another picture of a book display I encountered recently.
Thanks, James. Your other picture is great, too! “God is [price sticker] great”
I saw this picture elsewhere, but I just noticed the little advert flap below all of the books in question: “Available Oct. 15: Become a Better You by Joel Osteen”
Subliminal indeed?…
That is VERY humorous. I didn’t even notice that. Thanks, Drew. It’s also strange because when I took the picture it was already two months past the date!
Just by way of clarification, not that it really matters, but I took this picture with the camera on my phone while at the Borders in the Santa Anita Mall in Arcadia, though I know that James McGrath shared it, so it may have made it onto other blogs.
