Make Your Own Atheist Billboard! April 26, 2011

Make Your Own Atheist Billboard!

By Guest Contributor
April 26, 2011

A lot of readers have loved the recent atheist billboards from the Freedom From Religion Foundation. This is just one example of the ones currently up in Raleigh, North Carolina:

Now, the FFRf is giving you a chance to make your own with any phrase you’d like to use:

All you have to do is submit your photo and enter your quotation. (You can see what other people have done here.)

Although we can’t put everyone on a real billboard, every nonbeliever can participate in this unique “cyberboard” campaign. (Yours might even be chosen, with your permission, for an actual billboard.) This is your chance to proclaim you’re a freethinker and why.

It took me a while to find a photo (I wish you could center it on your own like you can on Facebook)… but I think I found the perfect one. I hope my billboard is threatening enough:

It’s a good thing no one will *ever* use this billboard-generator for nefarious means… 🙂

    It’s Curtis! I know Curtis from Triangle Atheists. Nice guy…

  • Roxane

    Hemant, yours is adorable!

  • Trace

    Why the anger? 😉

  • Simon

    Speak of the devil. I actually just saw this billboard on a bus in DC: http://ffrf.org/uploads/images/GodGovernmenthighres.jpg

  • You’re adorable, Hemant. :3

  • Tony

    That’s clearly a pic of darth vader. Didn’t know he was an atheist.

  • pjb863

    Hemant, that look is enough to frighten small children! Remember, you’re the FRIENDLY Atheist…..

  • Richard P.

    wahoo!! Always wanted to do one of those.

  • Hehe, awesome idea. Just submitted mine and awaiting approval 🙂

  • Aw, mine doesn’t look nearly as professional. Wish you could edit the text placement and such. It’s all good though, this is fun!

  • Ooo I can use the “out of the closet” to mean two things. Here is my billboard:

    Yay! As someone who has an actual billboard (assuming the recent tornadoes [aka God] didn’t take it down), I’m happy that there’s a way for more people to “come out”!!

    FFRF rocks!!

  • Noodly1

    Not to mention, we were explicitly denied the use of the word “god” by the billboard company. Which, of course, made some of our statements a bit challenging. Nice that FFRF has no such restrictions.

  • Noodly1

    But, yeah, hey Hemant, why did you pick Curtis to showcase and not that attractive Zepp family billboard? 😉

  • atheism: because you already don’t believe in all those other gods. let go of yours. it’s common sense, and feels good!

  • and Hemant, if that’s “friendly” we should send you to church on sunday, and let them make you angry. you’ll empty the place just with a growl. 😉

    if i go up with Hemant’s ad, i want mine to read “atheism: because i’m tired of all you stupid people ruining the country for something that isn’t there. science works, get over it.” and i’ll scowl like a pirate for my pic.

  • Demonhype

    Aww, you’ve got that adorable Johnny Depp look when you frown! I don’t think I’ve ever seen a picture of you frowning either!

    That caption is hilarious though.

  • Sinfanti

    Got mine!

    Hope this makes up for me not having a profile pic here.

  • Hemant, your Scary Face is so darn adorkable.

  • Carrie

    Great campaign…I submitted mine!

  • Yay, mine is approved!

  • Mimibunny

    Love everyones! Made mine and will post a link when it is approved.

  • So cool it hurts!

  • Cool! I’ve been having problems with the links they provide, but finally managed to see my own:

  • Mriana

    Hemant, I hope you don’t mind, but I showed yours on my blog post at http://www.goddiscussion.com with mine and TWO thumbs up, just for making me laugh. Of course, I gave a link for your blog on it too. 🙂 If you’re lucky, you’ll get some more visitors too. Great virtual billboard! Love it!

  • Randy

    Hemant’s can be used for everything from “Stop Smoking” to “Don’t forget your anniversary”.

  • Aah yes, those links were playing up and I didn’t check mine. Thanks for the tip Just Al!
