Religion is very important because it reminds us when to have dinners like the x-mas do, and festivities like the easter eggs etc. It is also very important because X-mas day, boxing day, good friday, and easter monday are bank holidays and we can all relax at home.

I’ve sent you a link to an article on HubPages that I wrote. The
article might be of some interest to you and like minded associates.

HubPages is a monetized site and, yes, I am attempting to increase
traffic to my article by sending out the link.

Having said that I still think you will find reading ‘Prophecy: the
Power to Deceive’ a worthwhile exercise.

If you've read The God Delusion, Dawkins explains why the "probably" is necessary for most athiests.

Using basic maths i have proven you all wrong, and your lives and mentalities have been rendered a sham. I used to think you lot was alright, but you just keep bangin on about it, doe ya. Tay right. You're obsessed.
A year ago this week, on my debut, i was just like all of you, but then i discovered women and girlfriends and ive got to admit, it doesnt all bother me so much any more.
I reckon God will lamp you, and johnny cash will do pisses on you afterwards….you French people make me so sick you honestly do.
Was it not shakespeare himself who said: "To believe in God is to believe in the existence of eggs. All eggs. To not believe in any eggs at all is…per se…shambolic and stooopid. It is like saying there's no such thing, per se…avec tooty…as golf, when there clearly is."
You never even answered my question about reg varney and jack the teeth, which is proper weird of you, anyway, so how can there not be a God if you didnt answer that? You have disproved your own argumentings, and, avec tooty….your own irrelivence and shit dress sense.

You know you are all cowards. You should put the word ALLAH on your athist bus instead of God and see what happens.

If those who choose to believe in a religion see the bus poster as offensive, perhaps they could enlighten us agnostics as to what all religions around the world could agree on as the true definition of God
In the real world to disagree with someone alses point of view is commonplace but at least the opposing parties can agree as to what their words mean! “God created man in his own image and man returned the compliment. Think on..

Leaving aside the typos, what could be more foolish than your statement that *Religion is not to blame for the vast oppresion and attack against freedom that is advancing in the world today* when all the evidence is to the contrary. Why, only this week a British woman was shot dead in Afghanistan for *spreading Christianity*, and that same benighted Islamic country a young man was jailed for 20 years for the *blasphemy* of downloading womenâ€™s rights info from the internet?

Are we admitting our ancestors were very stupid (sorry, I meant wrong) for following religion including Christianity? Just like they were wrong for invading and stealing wealth from Africa? Câ€™mon guys, the world is got too many serious issues, including a recession, at hand right now.

Look dear atheists, you have nothing to worry about because, from the look of it, you have more people on you side than you realize. Though majority of people might claim to be religious, a growing number is not actively practicing or conforming to the standards stipulated by their respective religions. I therefore think there was no need for those annoying messages (Oh yeah quite lackluster for sure!) you put on the buses â€“ it might just cause unnecessary tension. If people are comfortable with their choices, then let it be. A wiser approach would have been to petition for those â€˜religious postersâ€™ to be removed. That would make it even since thatâ€™s all you seem to want to achieve.

That aside (I am not attacking school of thought), even the simple logic or so called reasoning you call people to fails to answer many questions either. Does one then believe in Science? There are so many gaps (science has big liars!) there too. Lets all learn to leave people alone.

“The rise against christianity is well documated [documated?!] and foretold in the bible. Again that proves god does exist.”

Sorry Hope, but a book cobbled together by a bunch of superstition-riddled bronze-age knuckleheads does not prove the existence of a god any more than Harry Potter proves the existence of wizards.

That aside, the bus campaign is not an attack on Christianity. It is simply a reaction to all the religious advertising that has annoyingly been plastered on the buses and in the underground in London for decades, and it prompts people to consider the possibility that a god-free life can be as fulfilling, if not more so, than as one dominated by delusional beliefs in the supernatural.

To borrow your own terminology: The problem with RELIGIOUS people sometimes is that brain cells do escape leaving behind an head with nothing but air.

The only thing satanists, anti-christs or whatever you call yourself, don’t know is that the rise against christianity is well documated and foretold in the bible. Again that proves god does exist. I am really not suprised. The problem with open minded people sometimes is that brain cells do escape leaving behind an head with nothing but air. That is exactly what is happening to some cats in London.
