I find almost all advertising offensive.  Can I get a refund?

WHAT? Atheism isn't a "creed or doctrine". Atheism is the lack of creed or doctrine.

I find it interesting that the website they mention, atheist.ca, redirects to catholic.net.

As to whether or not there is a God can be debated and discussed. That I think that is good. I also believe that the real villain here is religion.Do you really think you need some priest or holly man to tell you how to live your life. Stop. Think. If we all did this, life would be much better.

Many say that they believe in space aliens, but I had never seen a space ship or any space aliens. But only those who believe in God are going to be entitled to heaven as those who do not believe maybe left out when their time ends. I am not going to take the gamble as I may end up facing God on my last day on earth. God is not bad, but a better way to live your life and a chance to come home, heaven.

It's funny how people get all bent out shape about these ads. Where were all the protesters about the billboards that were black and white and signed "--God," or, the got Jesus ones?

@Unrequitedstorm "Atheism is neither creed nor religion, therefore it does not have coverage under the law." True, atheism is not a religion, but it is a religious viewpoint or position. The US supreme court classified atheism as a religion, so all laws governing, and all freedoms given to religions would also apply to atheists as well. The government doesn't care about the "truth" of their classifications, but only in how well it allows them to keep order.

Atheism is neither creed nor religion, therefore it does not have coverage under the law. There are laws to cover faiths and beliefs, but really nothing to cover the lack thereof, something easily challenged in court if a group was to take it that far. That being said, atheists are beginning to reach the same status as religion, where the few intelligent people are providing the dogma for the random tools to spew without any free thought really taking place. So much for rational discourse.

"It's kinda offending to the people that believe in god." Oh kill me now.
