I thought atheists were against evangelizing and pushing your beliefs on others. Guess not.

God help these people! Someday they will face their unknown God and it will be too late for them. Atheism itself is a religion.

There is no such thing as a “godless holiday.” The god of “Human Day” is a human, and a stupid one at that.

Any city that displays these stupid ads should suffer the consequences of NO revenue from purchases of gifts. People who live there should shop “out of town”, no matter how inconvenient.

Granted, “Human Day” is much better than “Humans Are Evil Gaia-Murderers Day”

Get a clue, humanists. “Holliday” is a variant term for “holy day.”

I wish the Founding Fathers could see this. This is the opposite of religious freedom, with Christians being the target. How is it that Christians are the only group not included in “political correctness”? This is very, very wrong.

I thought humanism was a preferred dietary regime in old rural New Guinea.

“Humanists believe people should lead their lives in a way that benefits society at large.”

Yep. Soylent Green. Al Gore would approve.

"No God? ... No Problem!"

See if they say that when the islamism this mindset would usher in inevitably comes to pass.

They’ve got about as much of a chance of success as does Obama trying to join Mensa.

Humanism is a philosophy that says people don't need the framework of an organized religion or belief in a supernatural deity to live morally.

No, they just need the framework of a socialist police state and the belief in Big Utopian Government.

I think I'll pass.

I wonder if they would have the courage to post a “Don’t believe in Allah? You are not alone.” campaign slogan too and I wonder if the ad companies and media would continue to be so positive toward such a campaign.

Methinks no.

It is a rare atheist who can properly define where their rights end and those of others begin. Personal discipline and self-regulation are hardly universal in the absence of a belief in a higher power whose Commandments define behavioral boundaries proper to human beings, and thus define what is meant by "civilization".

It has been my experience, and I think that of many others, that people who believe in no greater value than their own instant need tend to gravitate toward those inclined to provide it, at others' expense.

The result is that "needs" are commonly conflated with rights, so that mere desires become the subject of legal claim, including the purported "right" not to be exposed publicly to the religious faith of others, which is only one among many such false claims of "offense", from which some people infer it is the State's duty to protect them.

And, as dictatorship is the only extant form of government capable of providing this protection, many who deny God's existence are naturally impelled toward it, in the hope that they may be sheltered from beliefs by which they are personally offended and which cause them no harm, other than perhaps, to their consciences.
