From here:
The atheist group behind last year’s controversial bus ads suggesting “there’s probably no God” is rolling out a provocative new set of posters on buses across the country that places Allah beside Big Foot and Christ beside psychics.
The new posters bear the slogan: “Extraordinary Claims Require Extraordinary Evidence” with “Allah, Big Foot, UFOs, Homeopathy, Zeus, Psychics, Christ” listed below…
“Why is belief in Big Foot dismissed as delusional while belief in Allah and Christ is respected and revered? All of these claims are equally extraordinary and demand critical examination,”
If atheists were as rational as they claim, the difficult to believe “Extraordinary Claims” list would include a few of atheism’s un-provable sacred cows:
- A belief that something sprang spontaneously out of nothing at the Big Bang;
- A belief that life created itself from the aimless interactions of inanimate matter.
A Christian understanding of the universe – the product of 2000 years of accumulated Christian thought – hangs together far more coherently than the conceited, quasi-metaphysical meanderings of the new atheists.
