		<description>I wish that there could be billboards and bus signs that say:

Has your child been molested by a priest?
Call 1-800-EAT-SHIT

The woman is the victim of a fraud; she shoul not  be respected much less admired!</description>

		<description>It is so easy to prove the existence of a Creator.

It would be a better spent money if they made a commercial with the formal logical proof found in the below website.

		<description>It&#039;s reverse fear.  She and others who oppose the ads, are fearful that the fear-induced teachings may not be enough to have someone use their brain and think about the possibility that there may not be a God.  Then that would lead to more people becoming non-believers, thus reducing the flock from the fold.

If this bus driver is that narrow-minded in her views, then she&#039;s pretty stupid.

Maybe her followers can pay her bills when she gets fired.  It&#039;s the least they can do to support her nonsense.</description>

		<description>If the driver does get the axe, I&#039;ll bet she views it as her Carrie Prejean moment -- where her god is putting her to the test.</description>

		<description>No. Courage isn&#039;t making a statement and then saying that it has to be accommodated. Courage would be if she lost her job over it and accepted it as the natural consequences of taking a stand. For people who say they are willing to suffer for Jesus, they sure are quick to lob lawsuits any time they don&#039;t get their way. This is just like the pharmacist debacle - the consequence of not wanting to dispense medicine is to find a different job, not to legislate that you don&#039;t have to do yours.</description>
