has recently arrived in Barcelona a advertising campaign promoted by Several associations of atheists and supported by Professor Richard Dawkins: is an idea born in London and will expand to several cities in Spain, including Madrid and Valencia.
This campaign is being developed in the advertising space on buses and take the following slogan: "God probably does not exist. Stop worrying and enjoy life." In one day, has raised more than € 1,000, which demonstrates the good reception given.
is not unusual for such campaigns emerge first in a city as Barcelona, \u200b\u200bwhich is always open to new ideas and that is, in this sense, much more cosmopolitan. So far there has been great excitement in Barcelona, \u200b\u200bbut since then the reaction will be interesting this campaign to be more conservative cities like Madrid and Valencia.
is such a great campaign that highlights the freedom of expression that exists in Spain, although I can imagine the opinion of the Church in such a "threat." In fact, the reactions were not long in coming. The newspaper El Público announced last January 14 on arrival in Madrid a counter-campaign. As if they were children, this campaign has virtually copied from the previous slogan: "God does exist. Enjoy life in Christ" and "God exists, stop worrying, trust in Him." Worst of all is that this claim that the Madrid authorities withdraw the ads atheists. But by what authority are believed to demand the withdrawal of advertising camapaña? Are we at the time of the Inquisition? When will they stop meddling in the life "on earth" and allow freedom of expression, even those who do not believe as elos? And best of all: how funds are to pay this year? How those from State grant and pocket all the English?
I said, as children.
