Hello everyone!
Recently, an atheist billboard cause quite a stir in my hometown and I really enjoyed expressing my opinions & hearing everyone else's via Facebook. I'm seeking to have similar discussions with a wider variety of people and I am really looking forward to hearing your thoughts Smile

Welcome to the party.
Even if the open windows of science at first make us shiver after the cozy indoor warmth of traditional humanizing myths, in the end the fresh air brings vigor, and the great spaces have a splendor of their own - Bertrand Russell

Son of a bitch, another atheist billboard? What is this world comming to, it's senses? Why wont you people just leave the myth lovers alone? What harm has religion done, besides the Dark Ages and 9/11?

Welcome, and be sure to pick up your complementary barbecue kitten cook book at the door.

It is a simple "Don't believe in God? Join the club". Here's a link:

Many, many believers in the community spoke out about how offensive (?!) this was. A Christian billboard stating that "Homosexuality is an abomination" and "Abortion is murder" was taken down a while ago, and many are upset that the atheist billboard is allowed when theirs was taken down.

I've mostly been keeping up with posts on facebook, if you're interested.

It's been great to feel like I've had a voice, especially when there are others in the community who see things the same way I do!
