Mirecki hospitalized after beating
Douglas County sheriff’s deputies are investigating the reported beating of a Kansas University professor who gained recent notoriety for his Internet tirades against Christian fundamentalists.
Kansas University religious studies professor Paul Mirecki reported he was beaten by two men about 6:40 a.m. today on a roadside in rural Douglas County. In a series of interviews late this afternoon, Mirecki said the men who beat him were making references to the controversy that has propelled him into the headlines in recent weeks.
"I didn’t know them, but I’m sure they knew me," he said.

As someone at DailyKos said, "They claim we're at war against Christmas because we say Happy Holidays, then they beat us for not believing in intelligent design."
