I think the best thing about this is that for once it isn't the atheists putting up controversial billboards Tongue

Good on the church for having a sense of fricken' humour.

"Is it about a spiritual male God sending down sperm so a child would be born, or is it about the power of love in our midst as seen in Jesus?"

I think the first one... ? Big Grin

Poor Joseph looks a little unhappy with this arrangement Undecided
Please give me a home where cloud buffalo roam
Where the dear and the strangers can play
Where sometimes is heard a discouraging word
But the skies are not stormy all day

What? Are you indirectly calling yourself and your fellow "Christians" all sheep who lack individual thought? Confusedhock:

It's funny when Christians fight amongst themselves over an amusing billboard haha... but then again... a lot of things are funny.

Those Christians seem far more genuine to me in looking for a reason to love instead of a reason to obey. And their attempt at challenging popular literalist views to bring focus to the good of their religion? I appreciate such. It is a shame that some people within their faith cannot even put up a light hearted sign without getting a load of hate. Hate seems to be all fundamentalists have nowadays - perhaps it always was that way.

I can only hope that us Atheists do not fall to blind hatred or fail to listen, even when others are obviously lying. I know that I have issues with that and will keep "up the good fight" in bringing dialog. Fundamentalism calls everyone with a seductive call.
