In the United States, more than 8 in 10 people regard themselves as religious, but from Tampa to Cincinnati and all the way across to Sacramento, billboards have been cropping up with messages that encourage a belief system not based on a greater deity.
“Don’t believe in God? You’re not alone!” were the first posters to be put up, in Arizona, Colorado, Texas and parts of the northeast.
“Being a good person doesn’t require God,” reads another.
The billboards are the work of a national group called United Coalition of Reason, a group that seeks to encourage nonbelievers throughout America by bringing them together.
“The point of our national program is to reach out to the millions of humanists, atheists and agnostics living in the United States. Nontheists sometimes don’t realize there’s a community out there for them because they’re inundated with religious messages at every turn. So we hope this will serve as a beacon and let them know they aren’t alone.” – Fred Edwords, national director of the United Coalition of Reason.
