Friendly Atheist

Can’t figure out the linking process at Image Shack.

Here’s mine, which is personal to me because I was raised to believe in Hell.

My first line was too long to fit but my slogan was…

What do Mussolini, Hitler, and Franco all have in common?
They were all fascists and none of them were atheists.

Here mine.

Here’s mine!

Or this one:

Woof!

I couldn’t think of anything else, so meh.

I’d need phote-editing stuff to make mine and I don’t have any… so I won’t send a pic, but mine would say “Think outside the God” with the “G” made into a stylized box and a little “od” inside it.

Deliberately provocative…

Hey, this is fun! I’ve got two of them up now. One at http://ornerypest.diaryland.com/090202_76.html and one at http://www.geocities.com/zorbthesacredcrocodile/

Too much offending?

Sandro, I like that a lot. I might use it when talking to people

This is just a comment that ‘probably’ in the campaign seems to be used in an inaccurate way.

I thought this Richard Dawkins quote looked good on a bus

Please accept my contribution.

Then a few months later, put this on the buses.

Shows you how insecure Athiests (sorry for using a curse word) are about their beliefs that they need to see signs on buses and billboards to help keep them ignorant. 90 percent of the world believes in a higher power. Keep your misguided, egocentric opinions to yourself. You don’t see Christians, Muslims or Jews posting signs on buses. Guess its because when know what the truth is. We have FAITH.

Hi Issy,
Thanks for your contribution. I thought it was pretty good.

You might want to re-think agreeing completely with Dale’s comment, above, since he/she makes several mistakes:

1. Dale seems to pretend to know the thoughts and feelings of people whom he/she has never met, nor ever conversed with. It seems a bit smug or arrogant to tell strangers all about them rather than to sincerely ask them.

2. Dale expresses disdain for people who have caused him/her no harm. Try reconciling that with loving your neighbor.

3. Dale implies that because a majority of people believe in something, it is therefore true. That argument is so old it has a Latin name, “argumentum ad populum.” A majority greater than 90 percent used to believe that the world was flat and that disease was caused by evil spirits. What happened to the “truth” of those majorities?

4. Dale wants to express his/her opinion, but tells atheists to keep their opinions to themselves. Either that’s hypocrisy, or Dale very assertively doesn’t believe in freedom of speech.

5. Dale says, “You don’t see Christians, Muslims or Jews posting signs on buses.” Oh, really?? If you and Dale aren’t legally blind, or don’t live above 12,000 feet elevation and never leave home, then you haven’t been paying attention. I can’t travel two miles in any direction without being bombarded by religious messages on billboards, buses, bumper stickers, t-shirts, buttons, TV, and radio, plus the half a million or so churches, synagogues and mosques in the U.S, all freely expressing themselves. Dale sees a couple of atheist bus ads and tells us to shut up, but then calls us “insecure.” Beams versus motes in the eye, Dale.

So Issy, I hope you stick around and participate in some positive and respectful dialogue with good, kind, moral people who just see things differently than you. We can disagree but still come to constructive understandings.

But I don’t think that Dale is a good example to follow.
