Mike Lee submitted this via UFJ’s Facebook wall, asking the question - How Far is too Far? How aggressive should Secularists be when challenging the religious majority?

I’ll let Mike do the explaining -

“How far is too far??” The infamous tone-debate is one that every major social movement has to work out internally in order to remain successful. Every group needs its Martin Luther King Jr.’s as well as its Malcolm X’s – and the atheist scene is no different.

Since starting my video series a year ago – my harshest critics haven’t been the religious; but atheists who have attempted to “shout me down” for being too aggressive and “exploitative” in my videos.

Let me make my stance perfectly clear: My first priority is to create entertaining content, with a healthy dose of satire. My second intention is to empower people to take a stand in their communities.

Once you’ve seen me do something relatively “edgy” (like selling fake mormon merchandise in front of an LDS temple) it hopefully becomes easier for you to do something you once thought was uncomfortable (like standing up to a religious co-worker or family member you were afraid to confront before.)

I’m certainly not attempting to martyr myself for any cause or be some kind of secular messiah. I don’t have all the answers – and my videos aren’t about telling people what’s right – it’s about telling people what is wrong. And to all the secularists that say I’m making atheists look like assholes; I say stop making atheists look like pussies.
