Every time I walk down the main street in my city lately it seems that I get lambasted by three or four groups of people with an amplifier and mic telling me I will go to hell if I don't accept Jesus. I hate it when people say that to me or in general, they don't know me. This is a far less offensive method than that IMO.
I'm all for it. |
Do you not see it as bad as them though? atheists are pushing their view onto others, just like the preachers in the street. I have a religious friend to also hates those people, mainly because he doesn't like the whole pushing religion on people but for them to come to accept their faith on their own.

I don't see it as intrusive to be honest, there is a difference. I agree it is the same basic principle as the guy in the street, but if the church started a bus campaign it would bother me because it is not some guy screaming in my ear.

So... your ok with an atheist bus campaign but not ok with a religious one. Isn't that hypocritic?

Read the post next time.
I am OK with a religious poster, but when some guy comes up to me in the street screaming that I will go to hell for not accepting Jesus I find that offesnsive.
I would feel offended if an atheist came up to me in the street and started screaming at me too.
Bottom line - It's OK to advertise, but please don't go out your way to scream in my face, because I wont want to play nice.

I did read the post. Read what you wrote.

You said that if a church started a bus campaign it would bother you.
