838814 2009-12-11 12:19:00 Seen the New Zealand Atheist Bus Campaign?:

http://www.nogod.org.nz

I'm surprised at how many people have donated cash. Not going to achieve much in my opinion.

Do you think bus companies will let the ad be displayed on the bus? I emailed some Auckland bus companies but i haven't heard back from them yet:

They have to say "There's probably no God. Now stop worrying and enjoy your life". because if they just said there is no God, then that would be false advertising.

Probably because us atheists are honest enough to say we can't prove there's no God - that's impossible - but that we go about our lives assuming he doesn't. The believers choose to believe in an entity that they can't possibly fathom, can't prove exists & can't knowingly influence (hey - He's omniscient, right? - there's no need to speak/pray to Him...).

Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence - I haven't seen any to date.

How do you know there is a god,because the pastor says so,

you have to worry at the total lack of any logic .

Actually saying there is no god would be telling the truth. About time someone told these brainwashed religious types.
