'There's probably no God' coming to a bus near you

LOVE IT! why should religious groups be the only one's that can stand up and voice their opinion. They can preach to anyone and everyone wherever they want, but as soon as someone with an opinion differing stand up they 'take offence'.

Nic: Freedom of and from religion in a secular pluralistic society does not mean that people cannot express their views. No one is forcing you to change your beliefs. Are there no theistic adverts in your country?

The religious logic that comes through these comments is absolute fail. Religion has no evidence only fear and smug assertions that when we die we will find out.

cant beleive they are still brandishing pascals wager! You seriously believe in eternal damnation? thats just weird, really twisted... pain that never ever ends... if there is a god he is worse than chris brown

By not knowing God you are missing out on live?

if there is a God is life over as you know it, joy laughter and happiness do not exist?! what is the message proposing? that God is all bad, that all he wants to do is control us?!

do we not have the freedom to believe in him or chose not to?

if he doesn't exist than, awesome, your sweet. but what if he does...

@ Ken Shipe #91,MattO #4, bruce #9 Sam #20,Belinda #83 & many many more Noob! Thats the slogan and that statement does not breach advertising codes. 100% there is no such thing as a god, I actually cant believe how many brain washed idiots we still have in this day and age. There are thousands of gods Also watch "The root of all evil" by Richard Dawkins Brilliant Documentary shows you how religion actually destroys the world.

Oh, how weak. This is a nonsense campaign. The key word here is not God, but 'probably' - athesits can't even back themselves to make a certain statement. Why? Because it's about faith. Faith overcomes doubt and uncertainity - that is why it is called faith! If we could prove God, then it wouldn't be faith. Duh! (Sometimes you have to wonder whether athesits really think this through...). In fact, the statement in a reverse sense actually suggests that God exists - so maybe you should stop 'worrying' that God doesn't exist.

Oh, also such questioning is not new. It is old hat as all cultures have, in some way, questioned God...it is not some latter day relevation because of science or enlightenment.

In the end, if you believe good, if you don't that is your decision. We all live by the choices we make - just that I believe some have an eternal consequence. If you are willing to take that risk, that is your choice...remember eternity is a long time.

I would prefer that it said "There is almost certainly no god. Now stop worrying and enjoy your life!". But perhaps the aim was to give it a light-hearted touch, to get past peoples defence mechanisms.

@Aleisha #55 Buddha isn't a god, he was a Man. Infact Buddism is technically a god-less religion.

-- Using the word 'probably' grounds their slogan. Atheism is based on scientific proof, it is not a Faith. You cannot prove that an omnipotent invisible creature doesn't exist... But you can definitely reach the logical opinion that it really, probably doesn't.

I think for the majority of Atheists it is about opposing the obvious stupidity of blind faith in imaginary characters like jesus based on mistranslated fictional stories and the evil that those organized religions are causing around the world

Charles #102 you couldn’t have said it better. There are some of us (me included) who would rather call myself an "anti-theist" unlike some people who don’t believe in God but would like to wish it was true, I find the very thought of a celestial North Korea abhorrent, so in this way I am much happier that I hold no belief and instead rely on rational thought. Still... The billboards is a bit tacky & there are more effective methods of putting the message across without being in your face like some religious people are. The ultimate commandment (if there was one) would be “Do to others as you would have done to yourself”, hence I say religious people cannot really complain about the advertisement.
