Interesting website.
Presents some of the important concepts from the Bible in a nice simple common sense way. They are putting up billboards to remind people that its more about how you live and treat your fellowman than anything else. Here are some of them :

- Let’s meet at My house Sunday, before the game.
- C’mon over and bring the kids.
- What part of “Thou shalt not…” didn’t you understand?
- We need to talk.
- Keep using my name in vain, I’ll make rush hour longer.
- Loved the wedding, invite me to the marriage.
- That “Love Thy Neighbor” thing…I meant that.
- I love you…I love you…I love you.
- Will the road you’re on get you to My place?
- Follow me.
- Need directions?
- You think it’s hot here?
- Tell the kids I love them.
- Need a marriage counselor? I’m available.
- Have you read my #1 best seller? (There will be a test.)
- Do you have any idea where you’re going?
- Big Bang Theory, you’ve got to be kidding.
- My way is the highway.

I wonder If a whole array of positive atheistic quotes would be allowed on Billboards in the US. Or here actually for that matter, I know there's the Atheist bus thing but my question extends more toward the more religious regions.

Honest question, no ranting....

Reasonable practical applications of what I'm always saying around here Rajk.

Although there are some doctrinal differences about how to apply the truths of God's word I don't share with those who created that web site, I still agree with most of it in principle.

That is totally illogical.

But that's what atheists believe, right?

These all belong to various people

"Isn't it enough to see that a garden is beautiful without having to believe that there are fairies at the bottom of it too?"

"I believe in God, only I spell it Nature."

"Philosophy is questions that may never be answered. Religion is answers that may never be questioned"

"Blind faith is an ironic gift to return to the Creator of human intelligence"

"With or without religion, you would have good people doing good things and evil people doing evil things. But for good people to do evil things, that takes religion."

I think God is interested in how we live our lives and how we apply the 'love thy neihbour' rule. Doctrinal differences are for Pharisees to quibble about.

As long as someone is willing to pay for the billboard space and there's nothing on it that violates a local obscenity law, there shouldn't be a problem.
