Atheist buses

rawneePersonally, I'm all for it. Churches try and get you to go and pray for your sins (yeah right) and now we have Atheist buses. A bit tongue in cheek I thought but it seems some people are taking it too seriously.
In this day and age when people are afraid of losing their jobs because of the recession, it seems that the God-fearing amongst us are pretty certain that their jobs are safe.
My question is this. If I were an atheist bus driver and refused to drive a bus advertising this church and that church, would the same considerations be given? I very much doubt it.
I blame political correctness again. Nothing good has ever come of it.
Hot on the heels of the 'atheist bus' campaign comes the 'Pro-God' bus campaign. My question is this, as an atheist, am I entitled to complain?
"The Trinitarian Bible Society's advert is not a direct response to the atheist campaign, said the group's assistant general secretary, David Larlham."
No dear, of course it isn't!
