I'd Like To See One That Says "Imagine No Stupidity"

There is a group that is placing billboards across the country that are representative of the group of people who do not like religion and want it removed completely from society.

While the billboards are garnering attention and complaints, I really don’t see anything wrong with them. If someone wants to pay to have that message placed somewhere, and the company that owns the billboard agrees to rent the space, then the message goes up, as long as it’s not publicly offensive language or something like that.

This is what freedom of speech is about. It’s not offensive for a sign to say, “Imagine no religion.” In fact, I did imagine no religion. You can look to Stalin's USSR or Castro's Cuba to see what it would look like. It’s not a very pretty sight, but this group is certainly entitled to their desires and opinions.

To those of you who are not happy with the message on the billboard, thank the Lord and your country that you are fortunate enough to live in a place where that billboard can be displayed, right alongside one that says “Jesus is Lord.”
