Post furtado quase na íntegra ao amigo L'sboa, num dos seus altruístas momentos de serviço ao público:
"La campaña para hacer publicidad en los autobuses urbanos de las principales ciudades españolas con el lema “PROBABLEMENTE DIOS NO EXISTE. DEJA DE PREOCUPARTE Y DISFRUTA LA VIDA” ha arrancado con fuerza. La Unión de Ateos y Librepensadores (UAL), organización promotora de la campaña, junto con Ateus de Catalunya, informa que en su primer día de funcionamiento ha logrado recaudar ya más de 1.000 € y que, de seguir a este ritmo, pronto podrá garantizar la presencia de autobuses con el lema de la campaña también en Madrid. La campaña se iniciará el próximo día 12 de enero en Barcelona, donde circularán dos líneas de autobuses de los Transportes Metropolitanos de Barcelona con la publicidad indicada. En los próximos días se darán a conocer los números concretos de las líneas de autobuses que pronto lucirán el eslógan “ateo”. Si la campaña sigue recaudando fondos al ritmo actual a continuación la publicidad se ampliará a dos nuevas líneas, y simultaneamente se pondrán también en marcha otras dos líneas de autobuses en Madrid, para extender después la campaña a otras ciudades.
La campaña cuenta con el apoyo de la British Humanist Association (BHA) que, con el respaldo a su vez del profesor Richard Dawkins, el conocido biólogo evolucionista autor de “El espejismo de Dios”, lanzó la campaña inicial en Londres con el objetivo de sensibilizar a los ciudadanos ateos, no creyentes y librepensadores en general sobre la necesidad de “hacerse visibles” para reivindicar los mismos derechos y libertades que se reconocen a los demás ciudadanos por el mero hecho de poseer o manifestar unas creencias religiosas. Desde entonces la campaña del “Bus Ateo” no ha dejado de extenderse por todo el mundo y, a partir de enero, finalmente llegará también a nuestro país. Los organizadores efectuarán una rueda de prensa la próxima semana en Barcelona, en el local de Ateus de Catalunya, para informar sobre el curso de la campaña. El día y hora de este acto se darán a conocer próximamente. Para más información sobre la campaña o para colaborar económicamente pueden consultarse las páginas web: www.busateo.org".
"'Why believe in a god? Just be good for goodness' sake', proclaims a new holiday ad from the American Humanist Association. Already appearing today in the New York Times and Washington Post, the message will soon be blazoned on the sides, taillights, and interiors of over 200 Washington DC Metro buses. It's the first ad campaign of its kind in the United States, and the American Humanist Association predicts it will raise public awareness of humanism as well as controversy over humanist ideas.
'Humanists have always understood that you don't need a god to be good', said Roy Speckhardt, executive director of the American Humanist Association. 'So that's the point we're making with this advertising campaign. Morality doesn't come from religion. It's a set of values embraced by individuals and society based on empathy, fairness, and experience'".
"There will be four new atheist adverts running on London’s tube network from Monday January 12, featuring quotations from famous atheists:
“I’m an atheist, and that’s it. I believe that there’s nothing we can know except that we should be kind to each other and do what we can for other people” – Katharine Hepburn
“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?” – Douglas Adams
“I do not believe in a personal God and have never denied this but have expressed it clearly” – Albert Einstein
“That it will never come again is what makes life so sweet” – Emily Dickinson
The tube adverts were revealed today at a Central London campaign launch by Professor Dawkins, Father Ted TV writer Graham Linehan, columnist and BHA President Polly Toynbee and philosopher AC Grayling. In addition, two large LCD screens (80 square feet and 40 square feet respectively) on Oxford Street (situated opposite Bond Street tube) will display an animated version of the atheist slogan. Ariane Sherine, creator of the Atheist Bus Campaign, says: 'You wait ages for an atheist bus, then 800 come along at once. I hope they’ll brighten people’s days and make them smile on their way to work'. (...) The buses will be running in London, Manchester, Birmingham, Glasgow, Edinburgh, York, Leeds, Newcastle, Dundee, Sheffield, Coventry, Devon, Liverpool, Wolverhampton, Swansea, Newport, Rhondda, Bristol, Southampton, Newcastle and Aberdeen".
