Surely atheists would want to avoid shoving it down people's throats if that's the very thing they slate Christianity for.
It's just as bad as enforcing Christianity, or any other religion on the public.

I have posted this above...
One of the reasons this is happening is to spark debate as the whether this should be allowed at all. Because people like this guy wont drive his bus, there's no reason for someone that doesn't believe to refuse to work if the tables are turned.
There's a lot of reasons why this is happening, you'd have to look up Dawkins' websites for details. But, the fact of the matter is, it's doing the job, which is good for society.

It's all very well and good for the debate it sparks
but the whole thing just seems rather hypocritical to me.
I'm reading The God Delusion at the moment, and the overwhelming sense I get from it is that Dawkins' over-zealousness makes him his own worst enemy.

I was suprised by the advert
but have to admit I'm rather enjoying watching the backlash.
Dawkins is great at what he does, but he's no politician. I don't think he's over zealous, just very harshly pointing out that to date scientific evidence has never supported any notion of 'god' or 'gods'
