Florida Freethinkers Billboard

The Florida Atheist and Secular Humanist Society has put up a billboard on I-95, and the locals are not happy.

All I can say is WOW, hold a bigoted attitude much?

How is that statement – “Being a good person doesn’t require God. Don’t believe in God? You’re not alone. www.FreeThoughFlorida.com” in any way offensive to theists? It makes a simple, undeniably true statement, asks a question, and then points to a community of like minded people

At least one local resident ‘Big Mama’ is protesting the billboard, despite the fact that she apparently can’t comprehend simple English sentences. She then goes on to talk about all the problems in schools and with kids killing each other. I’d be willing to lay good money on the fact that most of the ‘problem’ kids aren’t Atheists.

Seriously, if your skin is that thin that you can’t stand the thought that there are others around you who hold to a different set of ideals then you have some major problems.

Get over yourselves.

    if you get your faith irrationally you can loose it irrationally.

    Anyone that’s willing to refer to themselves as ‘Big Mama’ probably has an awful lot of thin skin to worry about. Of course, it’s fairly likely that she’s also got dozens of little round bruises all over her body where people have been poking her with ten-foot poles, too!
