The Gruen Transfer put up a challenge to various marketing companies to come up with "The Pitch" for the concept "Banning All Religion".

Two companies put their hands up.

Loud and Clear - Pitcher: Ben Beath
Play Communication - Pitcher: Simon Heroff

What do you think. Could a marketing concept such as these have an impact on the rates of religious belief or would the techniques used by the various religions to market themselves be unaffected.

Congratulations to both agencies for their excellent pitches and to The Gruen Transfer for facilitating the question.

  • I'm not sure banning it entirely is a solution. It would become taboo, and may draw even more followers. In the long run, only education can work.

  • Now, if we could just get someone to fund the running of these two ads 24/7 on every TV station in every country for as long as it takes to MAKE RELIGION HISTORY!

  • @blackgold161 Who else's fault would it be? You are proposing that we blame someone else for bad doings?

  • @iliveon Well you'll still have greed and stealing and cheating and murder and without religion you have no one to blame but human fault. Which was and is evil

  • @blackgold161 certainty is the root of all evil. and a cruel god makes a cruel man

  • @teedonster2 Abraham and Isaac. That was awesome wasnt it? God didnt spare His own son though.. He punished Him for your sins!

  • LOVE LOVE LOVE IT

  • All I want is at least one country on this earth that only embraces science and technology. that Really believes in the separation of religion and state. forbids policies that are motivated by and inspired by religion. what heights could we achieve?

  • NEW ATHEIST, SAM HARRIS' vision I feel is a good middle ground

    Sam isn't completely dismissive of so called 'spirituality' in religion, he often speaks & has a high regard for the contemplative religious traditions saying that they have the potential for insights that we are yet to garner into consciousness

    Such experimentation may well contribute to our next milestone in the evolution of consciousness, & a morality that strives to cause the least unnecessary suffering to ALL conscious beings

  • @gHoStsOfTheHollow read your bible. god apparently ordered a father to kill his son to test his faith only to pull out at the last second? that is a fucked up god if you ask me.

    one day therakiel the bright, he wields some power of heaven and hell, commanding army of celestial/ demonic nephilim.

    search it on youtube. he will triumph over heaven and hell,
