'No God' Ads to Hit London Buses [Dawkins & Co.]

A couple of comments:

The slogan is the brainchild of the British Humanist Association (BHA), an atheist organization that seeks to promote a world without religion where people are “free to live good lives on the basis of reason, experience and shared human values.”

Serious question: What does the word "good" mean to an atheist?

A report by the United Nations, released earlier this year, found that two-thirds of Britons admit they have no religious affiliation. And a BBC poll last year found that four in five people believe Britain is in moral decline.

Could there possibly be a connection between these two statistics?

Can you blame Militant Islam for wanting to take over?

London buses may soon be plastered with ads proclaiming “There’s probably no God,” if a British atheist group has its way.

Britain: where even the atheists don't have solid convictions.

““There’s probably no God. Now stop worrying and enjoy your life.” “

This could have easily been said by Behe.

God is no doubt devastated by this.

I am now at the point where I find I can only pray that His will be done when it comes to these people. I used to pray that their hearts would open but it looks like they are impenetrably armored against divine influence and utterly determined to reduce everyone else to their own level of ignorance.

“shared human values”

Based on which culture?

Homosexuality has been universally considered immoral for thousands of years and yet it is now “acceptable” because of a small but influential campaign by those who participate in the act.

Or Jeremiah Wright. “I disown God unless he hates white people!”

[beethovenfan]

“The fool has said in his heart, ‘There is no God’ “.

[weegee]

We already hear the advocates on the Left pushing for abortion and non-consensual euthenasia when it isn’t “a quality life”. So that is an indication of where not living the good life can take you.

And yet, among it all, people in prison with a life sentence are never found to no longer have a “quality” lifestyle.

I never got that. If there’s no God, there’s no reason. Nothing matters so who cares how you act?

The UN should ask Saudis how many of them are muslim by free choice and how many are forced to follow the faith under penalty of death.

[alloysteel]

Does that mean, there is probably no Allah, either?

Are you sure the Muslims will let this go unquestioned?

[BykrBayb]

Nice tagline. Any room left to mention taxes?

[alarm rider]

And people wonder why England is headed down the toilet.

Proclaiming “no God” is idiotic.

What is needed is for England to reclaim it’s traditional culture, patriotism and values. I wonder when that movement will start?

hey libs... why not post signs outside of the mosques?

and please... stand by your sign as a show of your convictions

[polymuser]

UK: There’s your sign.

[Hazwaste]

With respects to Thomas Jefferson, I tremble to think about not only God's justice, but the fact that yesterday, today, and forever God's Glory, Holiness, Love, and His Eternal Nature so vastly overwhelms the pathetic bleating of the "no God" crowd.

[B-Chan]

Someone should post ads reading “There’s probably no reality outside your own mind”. After all, there’s no more evidence of the existence of objective reality than there is for the existence of God.

Sigh. Materialists. These “if I cain’t poke it with a stick, it ain’t real” types almost never have any grasp of even the most basic philosophy.

[JamesP81]

That’s a bus I would refuse to ride on. Not because of any moral objection, I just don’t want to be struck by lightning.
