Okay, I didn't want to wade into another religous debate, but I will.

The issue that I have with these billboards is that it is exactly the type of thing the typical Angry Persecuted Athiest claim is their biggest issue with hardcore religious groups.

Yes putting up billboards to try to shame people into believeing what you did is annonying and a dick move, and yes, crazy fundamentalist groups clearly did it first, but being a dick is being a dick.

I guess that's my stance. I don't care if you're a hardcore fundamentalist, an athiest, or just an agnostic, as long as you treat everyone with respect I have no problem with you.

I can name a lot of religious types (though none I know personally) who I do have a problem with because they won't leave well enough alone, and I can name just as many athiests (interestingly enough, a few I know personally, and a few I know from this board) who I feel the same way about.
