atheist bus campaign
I saw a bus the other day with the slogan "There's probably no God, now stop worrying and enjoy life". This I thought was a weird one, and also, possibly undermining the useful control mechanisms that religion previously had. Sadly, many of the less sentient out there will see this as a call to do what you like regardless of the consequencies. So I would like to put forward a few alternatives.
There's probably no God, but that's no excuse to abandon your moral and ethical standards.
There's probably no God, so take responsibility for society and the effects you have on it.
It's just possible I could go on for ages here as regardless of your belief structure, most civilisations recognise the relationship between cause and effect. Most civilisations recognise the same undesirable traits regardless of the adoption of a state sanctioned religion.
So,
There's probably no God, but you're meant to be a mature civilisation. Pull your socks up!!!

How about: "There probably isn't a god, but you can't conclusively prove it, so why not behave yourself anyway, just in case? You never know, you might enjoy it!"
Obviously this would have to go on one of those big, bendy buses.
