Create Your Own Atheist Bus Sign

Too lazy too upload images but I have harbored a dream many for years that when the genii grants me three wishes, one of them would be to fill all the advertising hoardings (but buses will do) with the following advert:

The top half would be a picture of every big UK daily news paper with a picture of the paper’s owner above it.

The bottom half would be compltetely filled with these words in massive text “THESE PEOPLE ARE TELLING YOU WHAT YOU THINK.”

Here’s mine! Now THAT’S a bus I would be proud to ride!

I wish one could change the colors around, because I feel these colors put emphasis on the wrong segment…

Don’t know if this will work. But we can soon find out….

My own attempt at existentialist guerilla ontology.

PEACE, JUSTICE,
and the
SECULAR AMERICAN WAY

(If I had an image it would be Superman like with a big A on his chest!!!

How about this one:

Where does this bus go?

Here’s my attempt.

Here’s mine! w00t!

My entries…

There probably is no ceiling cat… Now stop worrying and hand me another cheezburger.

Do you believe…that you know… the difference between belief and knowledge?

There is probably no Dog

About the efficiency of prayer:

You can pray for God to take you home
Or you can get on this bus, and actually get there

Spiderman is Barack Obama’s favourite superhero.

Sandro: “Too much offending?”

No, but the analogy is very dodgy.

I like it too Sandro. J. J. is just being a poo-poo head. 🙂

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.
