atheist ad campaigns on london buses

london — london buses have god on their side — but not for long, if atheists have their way.

the sides of some of london's red buses will soon carry ads asserting there is "probably no god," as nonbelievers fight what they say is the preferential treatment given to religion in british society.

organizers of a campaign to raise funds for the ads said wednesday they received more than $113,000 in donations, almost seven times their target, in the hours since they launched the project on a charity web site. supporters include oxford university biologist richard dawkins, who donated $9,000.

the money will be used to place posters on 30 buses carrying the slogan "there's probably no god. now stop worrying and enjoy your life." the plan was to run the ads for four weeks starting in january, but so much money has been raised that the project may be expanded.

"a lot of people say trying to organize atheists is like herding cats. the last couple of days shows that is not true," said comedy writer ariane sherine, who started the campaign.

while most london buses carry posters for shops or hollywood movies, christian churches and muslim groups have bought bus-side ad space in the past.

sherine came up with the idea after seeing a series of christian posters on london buses. she said she visited the web site promoted on one ad and found it told nonbelievers they would spend eternity in torment in hell.

"i thought it would be a really positive thing to counter that by putting forward a much happier and more upbeat advert, saying 'don't worry, you're not going to hell,'" said sherine, 28. "atheists believe this is the only life we have, and we should enjoy it."

the british humanist association, which is administering the fundraising drive, said it had been so successful the campaign might spread to other cities including manchester and edinburgh.

most britons identify themselves as christians, but few attend church regularly, and public figures rarely talk about their beliefs. former prime minister tony blair was rare among politicians in speaking openly about his christian faith.

dawkins, author of the best-selling atheist manifesto "the god delusion," said that religion nonetheless held a privileged position in society.

"religious organizations have an automatic tax-free charitable status," he said. "bishops sit in the house of lords automatically. religious leaders get preferential treatment on all sorts of commissions.

"this campaign to put alternative slogans on london buses will make people think — and thinking is anathema to religion."

dawkins said that as an atheist he "wasn't wild" about the ad's assertion that there was "probably" no god.

sherine said the word was included to ensure the posters didn't breach transit advertising regulations, which stipulate ads should not offend religious people.

few believers appeared offended by the campaign, although most doubted it would work.

"i think people will ask themselves, 'on what basis can they make that statement?" said inayat bunglawala of the muslim council of britain. "so it will get people thinking, so in that sense it can only be good."

ad agency cbs outdoor, which manages advertising on many london buses, said it had approved the atheist campaign.

sales and marketing director tim bleakley said "our decision to take an ad that promotes god, or one that promotes no god, is based on commercial terms, as long as the advertising copy itself does not breach u.k. advertising standards."

the rev. jenny ellis, spirituality and discipleship officer for the methodist church, welcomed the ads.

"this campaign will be a good thing if it gets people to engage with the deepest questions of life," she said.

the religious think tank theos said it had donated $82 to the campaign, on the grounds that the ads were so bad they would probably attract people to religion.

"it tells people to 'stop worrying,' which is hardly going to be a great comfort for those who are concerned about losing jobs or homes in the recession," said theos director paul woolley.

"stunts like this demonstrate how militant atheists are often great adverts for christianity."

bitter ex-lover in web hate campaign

a jilted lover set up a pornographic website featuring naked pictures of his ex-girlfriend in a hate campaign launched after she dumped him.

motor racing promoter alan williamson advertised the website address on the livery of his racing cars as he travelled the world to race events.

he made numerous phone calls to his ex-girlfriend and sent up to 60 text messages per night to her mobile phone.

the 42-year-old also made insulting remarks about her to business associates, and claimed she was a prostitute.

williamson's actions drove his former lover to consider suicide, leicester magistrates' court was told. prosecutor mark williams told the court: "this is one of the worst cases of harassment i have ever encountered. "there is not a single shred of credible evidence to support any of the claims. i cannot emphasise enough the gross impact this has had on her - she became a social pariah and, at one point, considered taking her own life."

williamson, who admitted five counts of harassment, did not go to prison because magistrates heard he was suffering from a severe mental illness. instead he was ordered to pay £300,000 court costs and pay £5,000 to his former lover.

the court was told williamson, formerly of great glen, and his ex-girlfriend ended their relationship in december 2004, after he refused to get psychiatric counselling.

mr williams said trouble began "immediately". he said: "williamson travelled all over the world, making insulting comments about the complainant at premises such as garages and hotels where she was known."

in february he set up a website, which included a picture of them "in a very passionate and intimate position".

mr williams said: "when the police enabled the site to be blocked, he set it up again from a base in the usa."

representing williamson, imogen cox said that when she first met him she had concerns about his mental health. he was discovered to be suffering from bi-polar disorder and believed that everything he was doing was justified.

williamson, who now lives in west yorkshire, is now on medication for his mental illness. he was given a three-year conditional discharge and a restraining order not to contact his ex-girlfriend or anyone else involved.

nhs s.t.d. campaign

with the dramatic rise in sexually transmitted diseases among teens in the u.k., a new media advertising company has been given the task of creating a set of new 'hard-hitting' posters and flyers to be distributed around the various clubs/pubs of the south west of britain. personally if i saw this above a urinal i would think twice! these are supposedly being released some time this week to the tabloids, but as i’m the only one in the office i thought it would be nice to leak this scoop to you instead – i hate the press. cheers! emma
