The foundation has more than 16,000 members nationally and 270 in Georgia. It is the same organization behind a federal lawsuit challenging the constitutionality of the National Day of Prayer. (www.ajc.com)

  - As an agnostic, it tells me "We're here. You're not alone. Your point of view is valid as well." -- nm - con_carne Sep 9, 10:00 3

      - No more so that a billboard that tells me I need Christ's salvation is saying that I am an unredeemable heathen. - musubi Sep 9, 10:02
  - not the whole point, no. -- nm - znufrii Sep 9, 09:59
  - Are billboards that quote scripture just to antagonize people? (nm) - musubi Sep 9, 09:59
  - see, i thought they called religious folk unevolved in a gesture of friendship and respect. -- nm - TFox Sep 9, 09:58 3
    - Well you *are* an ape that could use come evolution. - musubi Sep 9, 10:00 2
      - Or some evolution. Either one. (nm) - musubi Sep 9, 10:00 1

  - in terms of getting a specific message across, I agree. - znufrii Sep 9, 09:57
Those are pretty douchey. -- nm - TFox Sep 9, 09:45 1

- I find them amusing. It should escalate pretty quickly, with the number of pro-religion billboards we have along our interstates. -- nm - Strongbad Sep 9, 09:46 6

    - I'm not sure what the "National day of prayer" case is, but maybe it could be a "national day of reflection or prayer"? :) -- nm - Beryllium Sep 9, 09:51 4

        "may" turn to prayer? We don't have crucifix-laden stormtroopers forcing citizens to their knees? -- nm - Dr.Vermin Sep 9, 09:59 1
        
        ooh, that would be great for a V for Vendetta sequel -- nm - Beryllium Sep 9, 10:00
        
        oh, well, it should clearly be rephrased to include synagogues and mosques -- nm - Beryllium Sep 9, 09:59
