At South Dakota State University, the Skeptics Atheists Agnostics Freethinkers and Empiricists (SAAFE) celebrated their first fall organization fair yesterday with a Fiction 4 Fiction drive.

Students could turn in their holy books and get classic (better written) works of literature in return :)

There were 21 Christian groups at the fair, but SAAFE was the sole freethinking group present.

That must have pissed off the Gideons, though, since they were handing out mini-Bibles not too far away… Ultimately, SAAFE ended up with most of their books:

It was atleast not mentioned as a 'baned book' collection drive. Remember, turn around could be fair play, such an event could turn ugly.
