Hey Doc, how many pair of Cheap Monday jeans do you have?
quote:
STOCKHOLM, Sweden - A punk-rock style, trendy tight fit and affordable price have made Cheap Monday jeans a hot commodity among young Swedes, but what has people talking is the brand's ungodly logo: a skull with a cross turned upside down on its forehead.
The jeans' makers say it's more of a joke, but the logo's designer said there's a deeper message.
"It is an active statement against Christianity," Bjorn Atldax told The Associated Press. "I'm not a Satanist myself, but I have a great dislike for organized religion."
Atldax insists he has a purpose beyond selling denim: to make young people question Christianity, which he called a "force of evil" that had sparked wars throughout history.
Too bad he used the false dichotomy that the alternative to christianity is satanism. I like the logo though.

The foundation of morality is to . . . give up pretending to believe that for which there is no evidence, and repeating unintelligible propositions about things beyond the possibliities of knowledge.

Damn! It makes me wish I was a punk-rocker, whatever that might be, just so's I could have a pair. Ah well.... back to being just another surly curmudgeon, I suppose....
I look forward to their introduction into the States. The antics of Robertson and Falwell, and the rest of the terminally dogma-bitten should be amusing.
