** We reached the total at 1006 BST (GMT+1) on 21st October, just over 10 hours after launch – thank you so much to everyone who contributed! If you haven’t donated yet and would like to then please do – we are now aiming to launch a full advertising campaign across the UK! **
The Atheist Bus Campaign launches today, Tuesday October 21. With your support, we hope to raise £5,500 to run 30 buses across the capital for four weeks with the slogan: “There’s probably no God. Now stop worrying and enjoy your life.” Donate online now!
Professor Richard Dawkins, bestselling author of The God Delusion, is officially supporting the Atheist Bus Campaign, and has generously agreed to match all donations up to a maximum of £5,500, giving us a total of £11,000 if we reach the full amount – enough for a much bigger campaign. Our campaign partner, the British Humanist Association, will be administering all donations.
With your help, we can brighten people’s days on the way to work, help raise awareness of atheism in the UK, and hopefully encourage more people to come out as atheists. We can also counter the religious adverts which are currently running on London buses, and help people think for themselves.
As Richard Dawkins says: “This campaign to put alternative slogans on London buses will make people think – and thinking is anathema to religion.”

all atheists are hypocrites. there is no such thing as a society free of religion (though atheists would like to remove religions THEY dislike and replace them with ones they DO).

Hey Joe,
You’re absolutely right – I agree. “there is no such thing as a society free of religion”. But guess what – that doesnt make it true.
People have a strong need to believe in things that give purpose, hope, meaning etc. I dont believe in any of the gods, us humans have. I get my purpose from us, from people.
And thanks for the ’scum’ comment. Lovely.
You take care now

“go to hell hypocritical scum, burn in hell.”

Many people have a great deal of trouble comprehending theories like these. Is the government doing whatever is necessary to maintain calm among the population after these speculations aboutthe end of the world? If this is true, then who will be the chosen few that they will save?
