UK atheists spread the word

January 07, 2009

British atheists have launched an advertising campaign on buses across the country, telling people not to worry about incurring the wrath of God. 800 British buses and the London Underground will be carrying the slogan: "There's probably no God. Now stop worrying and enjoy your life." Campaign organizes raised more than 140,000 pounds (204,665 US dollars) to fund the project. The money will also pay for 1,000 advertisements on London Underground. The fund-raising drive was prompted by a suggestion from comedy writer Ariane Sherine who objected to a set of Christian advertisements running on London buses.
