Dawkins' atheist ad campaign hits fundraising target

Excellent

Good news, indeed. For all these idiots posting up here that Dawkins is a fundamentalist, or that atheism is equal to a religion, maybe get an educated adult to read your posts first.

Science and atheism are based upon the same principles, fact and evidenced based iterative research. Religion is based upon pure faith, facts, evidence and research play no part.

"That is not an atheist slogan. And athiest is certain there is not god. An agnostic is uncertain whether there is a god or not and so gets on with his/her life as best they can. So it is an agnostic slogan"

Incorrect, an atheist says that there is no empirical evidence that there is a god, that existence of a god is not falsifiable and therefore not fit for research, and therefore the atheist lives their life as if there is no god. An agnostic believes in a higher power but has not decided what it is.

So stupid. When are they simply going to realise that it's too late? We have digitally replicatable 'art' now and that's that. The cat is out of the bag and it's time for them to shut up and sort their business models out.

I am neither pro nor anti-copyright, this is how it is and you can't really do a lot about it.

Up the quality to price ratio of their 'art' output and you may find more people willing to pay.
