God Created My Shirt

Thanks to sportsy-outdoorsy retailer REI, I'm wearing my God shirt right now. Not that I knew that that's what I would get when I ordered it. On the REI web page, it looked like a pretty casual but nicely presentable shirt to me. But after I took it out of its packaging, there it was: a label affixed to a sleeve, taking a decidedly creationist view of the world.

I thought I was only buying a garment, but I got the little sermon for free! Hooray for two-fers!

I called REI to make sure that they really were OK with an atheist like myself wearing such a divinely endorsed article of clothing, and I also asked them if they were in any way officially affiliated with the Big Guy (yes to the former, no to the latter).

I love the shirt, obviously — it does near-biblical wonders for my appearance.
