There are two types of people in this world. Creationists and people with brains.
Recently, I happened to be making use of public transport ( I’d say it was for carbon footprint reasons, but then I’d have to hate myself ) only to find myself face to face with this snippet of christian advertising. I know some would call it a ‘message’ or even ‘guidance’ but it is simply trying to sell the christian product to the masses. Jesus and god are the worlds most recognisable and popular brand names. Coca-Cola are only kidding themselves.
But I digress. As an atheist I didn’t find this poster offensive ( I mean, we all had imaginary friends at some point, right? ) I simply found it insulting to my intelligence. So I took it upon myself to get in touch with the bus company’s feedback department and find out what their stance is on this sort of thing. Does christian advertising get priority? Do they feel it may be inappropriate to promote false hope? Would they be so willing to advertise other religions? And if not, why is one religion deemed more suitable than others for public transport. I’ll let you know whats said as soon as I get any response! And if they need a replacement poster, I have one ready and waiting right here.
