Hemant reports on the rejection of an atheist bus ad which read “You can be good without God.” The rationale?:
All advertisements must meet acceptable community standards of good taste, quality and appearance. Furthermore, the ads will not be considered discriminatory, or objectionable to any race creed or moral standard.
Hemant points out how ridiculous this is, since strictly read it should ban everything from ads for hamburgers to chocolate hearts to congressional candidates. But I think there are plenty of people who half-believe that there is something evil in contradicting other people.
