The Iowa Atheists & Freethinkers (IAF) and the United Coalition of Reason have put the following ad on the sides of 20 buses in Des Moines:

Obviously, it’s reaching out to current atheists rather than tearing down religion.
I-A-F spokesperson Lily Kryuchkov says the purpose of the ads is to simply raise awareness of the group’s existence.
“A lot of times nonreligious people feel isolated and with all the negative attitudes toward atheism, they don’t have anybody to talk to,” Kryuchkov said. “So, we’re trying to provide a community for them.”…
“We’re not really forceful and not trying to convert anybody, but kind of in a friendly way, letting people know there’s an alternative view that exists here in town. But, we’re not real aggressive about it,” Kryuchkov said.
I expect there to be no controversy whatsoever…
