If Freedom From Religion Foundation is not about attacking Christians, but about defending the dubious principle of separation of church and state, let the atheist group sponsor 55 billboards taking aim at the prophet Muhammad during Ramadan.

“Dear Christians, We Hate You. Sincerely, Atheists “

So. We will pray for you.

It sounds like they don’t want to be happy or merry during this Christmas season. They’re going to stick with being only gay.

Not atheists. Anti-theists.

I'm an atheist, and I don't hate Christians. Or Jews. Or Muslims. Or Buddhists. Or Hindus. Or wiccans.

You get my drift.

Atheists...shake their fist at God.

Well, except for the 99% of atheists who, when asked about God, shrug their shoulders and say, "whatever".

That’s the arrogance of atheists that they inherited from their father, the devil.

And for their unrepentant, unforgiven sin, the unGodly will spend their existence beyond this fallen world in everlasting torment.

Gee, I like you too :-)

Many Christians are former atheists.

My guess is each one of those billboards would provide a lovely Christmas for several impoverished families in the area. That’s what the Christians in the area will be doing, without fanfare.

I read some of the billboards and I didn’t see anything offensive. A bunch of personal quotes from atheists on why they are happy without god.

“If the message at all is to believers, it would be that we are good moral people, too.”

Atheist + Morals = Oxymoron. If you do not believe in God then on what authority does this morality come from? There is no point in morality if you are an atheist.

It always seemed a strange sort of activity to me, this billboard business. After all, I don’t believe in Krishna, but I really don’t feel compelled to put up billboards in Calcutta telling them they shouldn’t.

(sarcasm)

I think the the FFRF should do just that. But they are too timid to do so on their own. Instead I think that it should be done for them, on their behalf.

Just slight modifications to their posters, then repost them. Like this, based on their real posters:

“Reason. Equality. Doing good. — All without Allah.”

“As my ancestors are free from slavery, I am free from the slavery of Islam.” — Butterfly McQueen

“Praise Darwin. Evolve Beyond Islam.”

“Imagine no Islam.”

“I believe in humanity, not Islam.”

“Islam doesn’t need rights. People do.”

“Islam is just a fairy tale.”

“I gave up being a Muslim, and I’ve never been happier!”

“Studying the Koran made me an Atheist.”

“Islam is garbage. Mohammed is a lie.”

One has to wonder why atheists care about my belief system or my faith in God...and feel the need to denigrate it...

I guess they think it makes them look superior...

Small minds think that way...

I could care less about their lack of a belief or faith in God...

It does not bother me in the least...

Indeed, not only are the atheists putting up 55 billboards that bash the religious faith of more than three-quarters of Americans, they have deliberately chosen to do so during the Christmas season, defecating on a holy day on which Christians celebrate the birth of Christ the Lord.

The wrath of God is being revealed from heaven against all the godlessness and wickedness of men who suppress the truth of God by their wickedness. And because of their stubbornness and their unrepentant heart, they are storing up wrath against themselves for the day of God's wrath, when his righteous judgment will be revealed.

With one exception, the cited billboards are not specifically against the God of Abraham. One of them is, and it would be offensive to Jews, Christians, Baha'i, and in some part, Muslims as well, since it deprecates the Bible.

On the other hand, The Diarist uses his freedom of speech to tell people that his merciful God is going to torture them forever, a belief which has not universally been believed by Christians throughout history, and is not believed by some even today.

Is the latter "hate speech?" Nope. No more than professing not to believe in Odin.
