-Removed-It matters because there are far too many christians who try to pass their views into law. If all christians respected the separation of church and state, then nobody would very much care what they do or say. For the most part. Of course there are other aspects that are objectionable, but the looming specter of theocracy is by far the biggest one.

correct me if i am wrong, there are other instances and perhaps some court cases ongoing in the States where individuals have objected to certain religious elements in public places, i recall a monument with the ten commandments, and some type of religious regalia on a court building being a matter of contention.

-Removed-I am an American, so we have more than our fair share of people trying to chip away at the wall of separation between church and state. We must remain ever vigilant. I can only envy you Europeans for your low levels of religious zealotry. I am not a lawyer, though. I am but a humble artist (in the real sense of the word).

In answer to your question, I have no problem with the advertisement. It may backfire and create more Christians. If it doesn't, oh well. Everybody will have a chance to accept or reject God; then the judgement.
