The 'probably' is such a cop out.

The 'probably' is such a cop out.

For Richard Dawkins it is...

But you've gotta start somewhere. Here in America this stuff never flies.

"Is there a god, Stephen?" "No darling."

Thou shalt not question Stephen Fry, and all that.

It says "There probably is no god. Now stop worrying and enjoy your life."

[The1exile]

If that wasn't obvious,. the site actually writes

The complete slogan reads: "There's probably no God. Now stop worrying and enjoy your life."

If it said "there is no god," then that'd be as good as religion: making claims about something that cannot possibly be proven. So the "probably" just solidifies it. The fact is, God is an empty possibility: if you believe god transcends logic, then there's no way to tell whether the world we live in is one with a god or not, which means it doesn't matter in the slightest. If you believe that it does make a difference whether there is a god, then you need to show us where that difference is.

Pretend there are two universes: One with gravity, one without. All we'd have to do is drop something to see which universe we were in. Now, pretend there's a universe in which things are a result of a continuous chain of events, another which things happen because an omnipotent being says so. Now, how do we test which one of those universes we are in?

So that sign says it perfectly: there's probably no god. So let's make the best out of the life we have. imo, this involves being a good person. That's where humanism comes in: Morals exist, but aren't based on the arbitrary dictations of a god. Morals are based on what helps or hurts people.

Just out of curiosity, has God issued a press release about these ads?

What about through his publicist? (I am referring, of course, to His Worshipfullness The Pope)

It's a bus that bends.

Honestly, you could have worked that out for yourself if you'd tried.

It's a way of making sure that gays are spread evenly though the community.
