We want a sustained, repeated message to be out there for a decent amount of time. That’s how to change people’s minds. So me and my mates reckon the money should be spent on having the messages out there for longer rather than more buses.

Yes please! Bumper stickers, and go right ahead with the athiest bus campaign… bring it on!

@Daniel, 22nd comment, I think it was because it was started in London on the buses there? Christians were advertising on them with a website that led to ‘you’re going to burn in hell ifyou don’t accept my imaginary friend’ sort of style message… hence the campaign on the buses.

Correct me if I’m wrong, someone?

Cheers

Why buses? Surely more people will see roadside billboards.

I was totally going to suggest bumper stickers!

Why not have bumper stickers made, and sell them to make money for more no god campaigns.

Good point Sam. There are probably 2 reasons for that:

1. When we originally started planning we were not going to be able to get the bus ad unit we wanted in Christchurch. That has since changed.
2. Most of the core group of people behind the campaign live in either Auckland or Wellington (not saying that is a good reason, but I am sure you know how these things happen)

We will definitely look at balancing up Wellington and Christchurch.

Why half the number of buses in CHCH than welly? Christchurch is bigger than Wellington in both area and population.

Amen to the bumper sticker idea – I’d love one! Keep up the great work guys and thank you.

How about using the excess donations for a billboard on the Auckland motorway in close proximity to one of Destiny Church’s ‘Super City needs a Super Church’ signs
