There's going to be ads for Jesus aired during the Superbowl tomorrow evening. This is why we can't compete with the Xians with our message. Commercial air time during the Superbowl is hugely expansive. Atheism may be the truth but the money we have to work with is dick.
Atheistic apologetics has a bigger problem than lack of money. It has a fertility problem. Atheists have fewer offspring to indoctrinate than religious people, not to mention the fact that they often claim they prefer not to indoctrinate even when they have the opportunity. After biological predisposition, parental orientation is the second most consequential influence on religious uptake. Where advertising dollars figure in, I donβt know. I doubt it has much sway.
Who cares? Who are they advertising to at this point? Literally the whole planet knows of Christianity Islam and Judaism. Let them waste their money.
Why does Coca-Cola still bother advertising, or McDonalds, or Ford, or any other hugely successful entity everyone already knows?
@Sgt_Spanky Not sure, but I think it's so the Executives can score tickets and fantastic seats to the big event
@Sgt_Spanky companies come out with new products. Religion doesn't produce anything new, just the same ole bs.
Those ads have been on TV for almost a year...they show troubled people of all ages and state "jesus gets US"...pretty low-key and full of actual caring about others, as Xians should be....i have no problem with them.
This is one big reason I suggest uniting under an acceptable idea (like Brights.com) which can use donations much more effectively. Atheist won't do that, however, because they are terribly smart people. They've figured out the truth, after all.
We're too enlightened for our own good.
