"Why Believe in God" ad campaign

Strangler Lewis · 11-14-2008, 12:24 PM

I always assumed that the phrase "for goodness' sake" was a way of invoking God without quite taking his name in vain.

That observation aside, I still vote "no." As a believer in "self-evident truths," there's probably not much about the sponsor's positions that I would disagree with. Still, I view this as imposing a solution to a problem that doesn't exist. Thus, what we are left with are reachers reaching out to seekers. Reachers and seekers generally intersect at the point of mischief and self-righteousness. If we're keeping score, I say the campaign sucks.
