One is on I-8W. SAME ad. @Sakura I don't have to respect their ridiculous beliefs, ever. I only have to tolerate them. Tolerance and respect are not the same. I find anti-gay ads very offensive, and also get annoyed by constant showings of xtian faith. You can't help your feelings, only what you do about them. And yes, Ronisymello, why would the "all powerful god" need a BILLBOARD? Seems a little low budget- kinda like showing up on a toaster :) Staceyjw We have these up in SAN DIEGO too!!!!

When was last time a "Keep the Christ in Christmas" or other religous sign or billboard vandalized with hate speech? We respect their right to put them up and don't mess with them just like was ask the same, we never asked Christian groups to agree with our billboards. @Sakura

If atheists want their viewpoints respected, they need to respect and tolerate the beliefs of others. People believe Christ is their saviour, and they have the right to practice their religion. Sakura,
