Has anybody seen any news stories about the Atheist billboard in Ft Lauderdale Fl? http://www.cbn.com/cbnnews/us/2009/July/...Billboard/
It's so rediculous. Even if I was a theist I would find this rediculous! First of all, there is absolutely nothing offensive about that billboard. It doesn't say "there's no god" or anything of the like. All it says is, atheists are good people and if you dont believe in god, there are others out there like you! How anyone, even a christian, can find offense to that I do not know. It's not trying to convince anyone of atheist beliefs. The people that are going to respond to that billboard are already going to be skeptics. I doubt a christian is going to see that billboard and say "wow, all of a sudden I dont believe in god!"
And, Bottom line, atheists have as much right to put that on a billboard as christians or anyone else have to put their beliefs on a billboard. The only difference is, Christian billboards actually try to convince you of things.
There's a few videos floating around of news stories too. You can tell they didnt put it up in the most intelligent neighborhood, lol, but that's all I'll say...
