What are the reactions?
The coordinated nationwide program that began in 2009 has put up billboards in 33 states, including the five largest cities in Texas. Corpus Christi, the sixth city in the state to receive the billboards, is also the smallest.
I haven't run across any, then again I rarely find myself on the highways in San Antonio.
First Amendment in all its glory!

Not yet.
I wonder what would happen if I decided I didn't believe in traffic signals?

I have no problem with atheists. I have a huge problem with atheists who want to make atheism the national religion.

How? I asked if this billboard had popped up in anyones city, and what the reactions have been.
If you are offended by it, ignore it.

It's all good...I generally don't believe in speed limits myself.

I don't see it as religious discussion. I see it as bringing to light the hypocrisy of "opposing views"trampling on what they oppose without concern but yet scream as loudly as possible when they feel they have been trampled on. You see the same behavior with the lesbian/gay community.

I agree. Its their loss anyway.
For JP171--Did you forget about freedom of speech not to mention freedom of religion. Now, I am not an atheist nor do I believe in what they stand for, but as an ex- marine, I fought for their (and your) right to your beliefs.

If you really feel that way, just to the left of the "quote" button is a triangle with an exclamation in it. If you tap that it gives you an opportunity to report the problem you have with the thread. Much easier than all the flack you are currently taking.
