A group of people perpetuating non-believe at the expense of those who believe is NO better than groups of people perpetuating "beliefs" at the expense of those who do not believe.

I respect anybody both religious and non-religious who is confident enough about their beliefs or non-beliefs that they do not need to convert others to their cause or shove it in anybody else's face.

I always love these arguments. It's like 2 sides get into a fight to see who can be the bigger hypocrite/arrogant fool.

Originally posted by FunkyCrew I feel the same way (wow, almost like the words came out of my head!) the closest I ever got to being religious, is my baptism and I wear crosses because I think they can be a nice accessory I think people should have faith in themselves first, not some superficial supreme being

Great fashion sense.

Ps. What world are you 2 living in? Most people I know don't believe in anything; and the ones that do are my parents age. If anything it's the other way around, people don't believe in shit these days.

Pfft...goths.

I just don't get why someone would wear something that's so blatantly a religious symbol when they don't even believe in the religion. Kinda sends out the wrong message to others, ya know? Maybe I should start wearing a swastika for fashion. Just cause it looks cool with my shirt.

The ads are not really a big deal, but just merely the start of a new trend. If you think about it, religious groups have basically had unlimited funds to preach, and spread their word. Why the fuss when a counter argument is trying to do the same?

Plus, the ad is so calm. It does not insult, condemn, or offer any false solutions. It merely gives you an argument (there probably is no God), and then gives you a possible action to consider (enjoy life). No worse than: 'you have debt trouble, give us a call'.

What I would really like is to have those idiotic 'poetry moments' removed.

by wearing a cross and not in the faith, you're as annoying as the people that shout "Jesus Christ" in agony when something happens meanwhile preaching God's non-existence

Swastika is actually a Hindy symbol of some sort, so go ahead the Nazis just twisted around that one for their own use

I can't explain lol all I know that for me it holds no religious symbolism
