Bus ad doesn't make sense.
#8
RE: Bus ad doesn't make sense.
I'm jumping in on this one. It's just too hilarious to ignore.

Quote:Believe me, I know atheism has nothing to do with knowledge or certainty. Sure, you can say "there is probably no God", but that is the most unsupported statement I have ever witnessed.
I'd say "there certainly is a god" would be more unsupported. Fact is, there is no evidence at all for a god. But, at the same time, we cannot say with any degree of certainty that there isn't a god, for perhaps the evidence for such a being is just around the corner. In this case, we cannot make a claim on the existence of God other than the claim that it seems unlikely that he exists. Perhaps you'd be more satisfied if the ad had read "God almost certainly doesn't exist, but we can't be sure. In any case, have fun guys! Don't be chained to your religions which are so full of prejudice and hatred." Because that, after all, is the message being put across.


Quote: You don't believe in God. So why bother us with your Bus ad?

Do you honestly believe the world will see atheism is a whole new light because of an ad on a bus?
Come on now, everyone knows this ad is just to agitate believers. That is what atheism is becoming known for. Not so much proving atheism has a solid foundation, but rather to ridicule, insult and agitate believers.

Atheists would be a taken a bit more serious if you guys weren't so gung-ho to show the world "God is probably not there, so enjoy your life".

Maybe Theists should create a bus ad that says "God is probably there, but you still can enjoy your life".

I believe God is there, and I'm enjoying life more than ever.

The bus ad is just a sort of catalyst. Atheists are trying to get their voices heard so that eventually we'll be on a large enough platform to reach out to people and tell them to stop hating gays, slapping they bitches and bombing abortion clinics because God said so.

The burden of proof is on you, my friend. Until you can demonstrate that there is any reasonable likelihood of a god figure existing, we will continue to assert that in the bare lack of evidence, this god probably doesn't exist.
