So I had 20 minutes after class today before the bus came to the student union headed due south toward my house. With no pressing issues at hand i wandered into probably the weakest book store ever housed in an accredited university. Trying to figure out how to make this fun I spotted the cashier behind the counter, late 30s/early 40s christian looking woman. Instantly i knew what had to be done.
After some casual browsing I come across a Karma Sutra book. While thumbing through I took a few mental notes but put the book back. It wasn't going to hit the spot i was looking for. Around the corner I stumbled across where the 3 book Philosophy section ends and the 300 book Religion section starts. There before my very eyes was the book i was looking for. god is not Great, How Religion Poisons Everything. Being in the bible belt, I had no idea that there was no University PTA that would ban a book like this. Paydirt!
I walk up to the counter and was greeted with a smile, she took the book from me and ran it over the bar code scanner, she obviously did not see the title until it came up on the computer... her face made it the best $21.30 my parents have ever paid for.
