It’s not a band.

Being surrounded by the imperatives of a religion that you don’t believe in can be grueling. In Dallas, Texas, one can find a church (a very large church) on every corner of an intersection in some parts of town. That fact reflects the fundamentalist Christian beliefs that pervade Dallas as a culture and community.

But it’s not just Texan suburbs where one is confronted with such symbols and messages. For one lady, the day came to push back. This is the story of how a comedy writer named Ariane Sherine decided to play it, and how her campaign ended up becoming a measure for the loads of people that felt the same way:

“[She] dreamed of just one bus going around London with an atheist slogan after she saw a similar advertisement for Christianity on the back of a bus. She was upset to click on the web link it suggested and be directed to a site prophesying a future of hellfire and brimstone for all non-Christians. She determined to do what she could to offer non-believers a more life-affirming message…”

So now we’ve got 800 atheist buses to ride around London. Incredible!
