So, they say that there are no atheists in foxholes.
The atheists say that this is an argument against foxholes.
Then, there's the argument that sex is violence.
Lady GaGa says that this is an argument in favor of violence.

Tomorrow, a look at what Hanson has to say about the similarities between social networking and botany.

"They say there are no atheists in foxholes. Would you like to rectify that, you fox, you?"
If it's not clear, my positions on the following:
Foxholes: opposed
Atheists: depends on the atheist
Sex: in favor
Violence: depends on the violence.
