Internet Christians celebrate death of atheist activist: He is in a much WARMER place

Sixty-three-year-old atheist activist Rob Sherman died last Friday in Illinois when his plane went down, and Christians are responding in celebration, Patheos reports.

Sherman was a Green Party activist who spent much of his life advocating for the separation of the church and state. He was also a national spokesman for American Atheists, an organization that advocates for civil liberties on behalf of atheists.

On a local news article reported on the Patch, commenters were less than kind about Sherman’s passing.

Commenters also wrote messages like, “Falling out of the sky can make a man religious real fast,” and “He certainly didn’t have GOD guiding his flight. Oops.”
