I ain't getting on no Christian bus, fool.

[Mark]

So three Christian groups are going to put these banners on buses:

"There definitely is a God. So join the Christian Party and enjoy your life."

"There IS a God, BELIEVE. Don't worry and enjoy your life."

"The fool hath said in his heart, there is no God"

http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/2009/feb/05/atheist-bus-christian-response

I have to admit my first reaction was to think of complaining to the Advertising Standards Authority because a) the atheist bus campaign had to put the word "probably" in their ad to stop offending people, these guys don't b) they're stating something that's unproven (like an ageing cream stating it will make you younger) and c) the last one is calling me a fool, which is rather rude. But it's petty to complain for the sake of it so I won't but in my opinion it shows how the church can get away with saying things unchallenged and how sad it is that this apparent great omnipresent, all seeing being that rules the universe has to promote itself on the side of a bus.

I ought to clarify that I doctored the above image and that God was in no way involved

Perhaps not Mark but I think I see Beelzeebub's hand at work here.

I suggest you spend some time on the repentance step.

I can't wait for the next installment..! It'll be like the 'Gold Blend couple' couple with echoes of Rosemary's Baby.

"The GOD blend couple" ??

Can I get off the step now please? This George Bush chap sat next to me keeps stroking my knee and making me nervous.

Throw your shoe at him Mark, it's the only language those types understand.

Crikey Mark it gets worse , first Beelzeebub now George Bush, next you'll be telling me Andrew Castle just walked in.

I suggest you lob holy water balloons at them and take sanctuary in a church.

Or a pub, whichever's nearer.

May I suggest you read "The Fire Gospel" by Michel Faber. Brilliant.
