NEW YORK, Dec. 8 /PRNewswire/ -- Preaching hope and redemption, Reverend Billy and the Stop Shopping Gospel Choir will travel the country this month on a pilgrimage, urging consumers to celebrate the holidays by rejecting over-consumption, by avoiding big-box megastores, and by supporting local proprietors and community economies.
"When 7 of 10 Americans wish Christmas were less commercial; when, as a nation, we owe $600 Billion in credit card debt; when the average American family spends four months paying off bills from Christmas," exclaimed Reverend Billy (a.k.a. Bill Talen),"we are witnessing the Shopocalypse!
Reverend Billy and Choir members will travel close to 4000 miles on the coast-to-coast Stop the Shopocalypse Tour, delivering sinners from the deepest American vice and wickedness: love of buying and accumulating unnecessary, mass-produced goods.
Addressing throngs gathered in New York's Times Square on Black Friday this year, Reverend Billy said,"Christmas is not in a mega chain-store; it's not in a Gingerbread Latte. We've got to think outside the Big Box, children! We've got to bring this message of freedom back to our communities! We've got to bring it back into our homes and our hearts!"
