Patton Oswalt talks about religious billboards in Tennessee. Recorded at the Bijou Theatre in Knoxville on August 7, 2010. It was difficult to hold the camera still while I was laughing...

Why would I want to worship a god who plans that poorly. So much for all knowing.

Thanks for the upload! I hope Oswalt comes out with a new CD soon. He's one of the few decent living comedians that I know of.

@DragoonBoom You don't even know the definition of atheism...

Atheism is a disbelief in something because there is a lack of reasonable evidence. It is not a positive assertion (unlike yours).

There is no evidence for your personal god. You have the burden of proof, and cannot try to shift it onto us.

There are thousands of religions and gods, all made up by humans.

Respond with your evidence and argument. I will refute your claims and let the rest of YouTube ridicule your ignorance.

@skillcosby88 it was a pre emptive billboard.

one day a car crash will happen and the survivors will see that billboard and that billboard will have played witness to such a horrific crash the word "JESUS" will be all it needs.

[skillcosby88]

i recently saw a billboard that said "JESUS" on it and nothing else, no following billboards and absolutely nothing else on the front or back, wtf

The audio quality was horrible. I saw a billboard earlier today when I was driving through Cleveland:

King James who?

-God

I love how whoever made that sign just felt free to put words in god's mouth that he never actually said. Isn't that called bearing false witness?

@DragoonBoom I've been an atheist since 1988! so much for the whole "movement" thing. Also, you asked if I'm an atheist why do I believe in god? Whaaaat? I mean.....really? There is this thing out there called a dictionary. Check it out.

[DragoonBoom]

@InteGrayting2 If you're an Atheist, then why do you believe that a God even exists? You're merely stating the fact that you refuse to worship him.

Sounds to me that you're merely one of the many average Joe's who were caught up in a counter-cultural movement hosted on the internet, as opposed to someone who consciously realised that we are alone in the universe via contemplation.

I bet you also view Christians as dumb, yet you're indifferent to other forms of religious practice.
