The atheist creed: There is no god and I hate him.

Just put up a counter-ad pointing out that the cartoon finger might be Allah, and the problem is solved. Perhaps some RoP folks can show the Humanists the error of their ways.

I do turn on all my lights on Earth Day = it’s not really to mock them. It’s more of a protest of not being told what to do.

Well, I'm sorry you think it's rude. But some of us are sick of pretending that religion does no harm. Oh, I've seen good done in the name of religion, sure. But I've seen harm, too, plenty of it. I'm not even talking about Inquisitions or Talibans. I'm talking about the everyday harm of brainwashing people, starting at childhood, to believe that if they don't buy whatever form of nonsense their church is selling, they'll go to Hell.

You terrorize children with that, and many will grow into terrorized adults, frantically pushing the same load of hogwash on all their family. Imagine the anguish of some poor woman convinced her athiest child or husband will be tortured for all eternity simply for refusing to believe stories that came out of the same area of the world that gave us Islam.

Religion is what you get when you mix schizophrenia, psychological totalitarianism, and Amway. It's crazy, you'd better believe it, and you'd better sell it. Or you're gonna burn. And you call US rude? Pfff...

Atheists: those who worship a very small god, only seen when they look in a mirror.

Funny how the antitheists never target their ads at Muslims. Probably that whole “they’ll chop my head off” thing...

Actually, they're right. Their idea of God is of an imaginary one that they've created in their own small, juvenile minds. That everyone could shake off this demeaning habit and worship the true God in spirit, as revealed in the scriptures and through the new birth.

The blessing of our Savior to you and your own.

27. Infiltrate the churches and replace revealed religion with “social” religion. Discredit the Bible and emphasize the need for intellectual maturity which does not need a “religious crutch.”

28. Eliminate prayer or any phase of religious expression in the schools on the ground that it violates the principle of “separation of church and state.”

Militant atheists are tools- either knowing or unknowing, but tools.

"...That said, I wonder if Christians would get away with the kind of demeaning and dismissive tone evident in these bill boards by the AHA..."

Do You mean something like this?

Similar Sign

It seems that yes, Christians do indeed "get away" with it.
