Heard the one about an atheist that was so sure about his "religon" of athiesm he wanted to put up a poster that starts "There's probably no God"... ❓ 😆 ❓ ❓ 😈
Apparently there is such a group see the BBC http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/england/london/7681914.stm ...
From my perspecitve I was a bit outraged, to start with, but the more I read about it - the more ridiculous the whole concept appeared to be...
I must say it does sound like a bit of an own goal by Dawkins and the anti-god lobby.
Hilarious... it isn't April 1st is it?
I think it is a great campaign. There are too many nasty things done in the name of religion & we would all be better off without it. As far as I can see there isn't a God & we would all be happier if we got on with living life now. Imagine a world with no Christians/Muslims/Jews/etc - everyone just the same, making the best of their time on earth without trying to kill each other.

Apologies if I have offended anyone, everyone is entitled to their beliefs and points of view.
...I do like the idea of a life without worries though (the rest of the slogan says 'now stop worrying & enjoy your life'.) Right now that seems rather a hard thing to attain.
I sort of see where you are coming from saying "what if we had no relgion - people would all be the same", but actually human history has repeadtly shown that humans never consider themselves equal and seek ways to get above the rest... So I'm not convinced there is any evidence to show that we can get along with each other (as a whole society)
Testing my history knowledge now, but I don't think Hilter was driven by "religon" (he made one up though...)..
I believe the bus campaign by richard dawkins et al was more ofan indirect knock on some of the more extreme religions that have put ads on the sides of busses saying (not in these words but you get the idea) SIN AND BURN IN [censored]!!!!
But i did kinda like the idea, its a way of thinking for some people, the same way that Christianity, Buddhism, Islam is for others, and they have as much right as anyone to express their opinions as anyone else
