Atheist ads to adorn New York subway stations

Yeah, and I'm highlighting Catholic hypocrisy. Catholics (and the Protestants after them) have been shoving their religion down people's throats for 1,600+ years. Atheists haven't been able to speak up until now.

Hey, I have no problem with evangelism, my problem is for people who say they don't want religion shoved down their throats and then go out and shove it down other's throats is simply hypocritical.

They should just come out that they are a religious cult intent on spreading their own gospel. It would make things easier.

I think what people meant is that we're getting tired of religious and dogmatic types (and I INCLUDE "atheists amongst them) who insist on shoving their warez down our throats. In other words, they can do what they like amongst themselves in their spare time but don't harass the rest of us with it.

These "atheists" are up to something. I haven't quite worked out exactly what it is but they're clearly well connected. One avenue to pursue would be to follow the money..... that is always a dead giveaway as to who they are serving and working for.

Wow, impressive ... I'd like to see the same in London.

As has been mentioned before they're already active in London and no, I don't want to or need to see them anymore than I need to see the Pope, the Imam or the skullcap mafia wallbangers.

Having an appreciation for a particular belief system doesn't mean someone has to become a missionary to the public for it. I admire Jesus, for example, but I don't worship the guy and I don't take it as my life's overreaching goal to spread his message around to the world. Jesus was just one man, a guy who stood a cut above the rest because he had an opinion that went against the status quo and for which the establishment didn't want to hear. As the story goes, he paid the supreme price because he tried to change the world by bringing out in others what he was himself (a divine being, a new sort of human being or whatever). Food for thought: the world doesn't really like radical individualists like Jesus but the world loves lackeys who follow some form of groupthink.
