ai_Droid Posted October 21, 2008 Share Posted October 21, 2008 In response to Christian adverts running on London buses, which linked to a website saying non-believers would burn in hell for all eternity a group has launched a appeal for dosh to fund an Athiest bus campaign. The slogan will read "There’s probably no God. Now stop worrying and enjoy your life.", pic and more info here: http://www.guardian.co.uk/commentisfree/20...ion-advertising I think this is a great idea, a perfect like for like response to the religious ramming their message down our throat all the time. What do you recon? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluemonday Posted October 21, 2008 Share Posted October 21, 2008 What about a Zen Bus? You could achieve inner understanding and harmony whilst commuting. And if there was one for Nihilists, you wouldn't be bothered. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jimcalagon Posted October 21, 2008 Share Posted October 21, 2008 (edited) Stephen Green of pressure group Christian Voice said: "Bendy-buses, like atheism, are a danger to the public at large." LMAO I like his other quote as well: "People don't like being preached at." Right. Doesn't fucking stop him though does it? Dawkins' quote sums it up, "Religion is accustomed to getting a free ride - automatic tax breaks, unearned respect and the right not to be offended, the right to brainwash children."

DjDan Posted October 21, 2008 Share Posted October 21, 2008 Freedom of speech and all that. Nice to see atheists painting themselves with the same brush. Imagine they will convert less than religious do though.. but sure, they can try. Professor Dawkins said: "Religion is accustomed to getting a free ride - automatic tax breaks, unearned respect and the right not to be offended, the right to brainwash children. "Even on the buses, nobody thinks twice when they see a religious slogan plastered across the side. "This campaign to put alternative slogans on London buses will make people think - and thinking is anathema to religion." sounds a complete nutter. obviously doesn't know what he's talking about.

Jimcalagon Posted October 21, 2008 Share Posted October 21, 2008 Yes, thinking is not anathema to religious types. However logic is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jimcalagon Posted October 21, 2008 Share Posted October 21, 2008 (edited) speaking of nutters.... hey jim. you obviously don't know what you are talking about. You don't believe in the big magic sky-fairy then? And your perticular brand of supernatural superstition doesn't think that you have to wear special undergarments to ensure your place amongst the righteous? It's amusing to be called a nutter by someone who thinks that one of the lost tribes of Israel somehow found their way to North America where they met an angel who inscribed God's will on a big golden book. Alanis Morrissette take note: this is ironic. Edited October 21, 2008 by Jimcalagon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
