 | April 12 2012 - Godless Bus Ads Now in Little Rock after Court Ruling - - - Central Arkansas Coalition of Reason -
Press release courtesy of Central Arkansas Coalition of Reason
"Are you good without God?
Millions are."
These words, superimposed over an image of blue sky and white clouds,
appear in queen-sized ads on the outsides of 18 Central Arkansas
Transit Authority (CATA) buses serving Little Rock. The ads will be up
for four weeks, which includes the October 14-23 run of the Arkansas
State Fair. They were placed by the Central Arkansas Coalition of
Reason (Central Arkansas CoR) with $5,216.00 in funding from the
United Coalition of Reason (UnitedCoR).
The posting of these ads by On The Move Advertising (OTMA) is in
fulfillment of a federal court order handed down in response to a June
1 lawsuit by UnitedCoR, represented by the Appignani Humanist Legal
Center of the American Humanist Association (AHA). In its suit,
UnitedCoR alleged that CATA and OTMA had violated its constitutional
free speech rights by declining to apply the same acceptance standards
to atheist ads as it applies to religious ones. At a hearing held
August 11, UnitedCoR sought a preliminary injunction requiring CATA
and OTMA to give equal treatment. The injunction was granted by
Federal Judge Susan Webber Wright, and the appearance of these ads is
the result.
Originally, Central Arkansas CoR had wanted its ads to run during
Little Rock's Riverfest this past May. But now, in the wake of the
successful litigation, it has chosen to take advantage of the
increased audience provided by the state fair and the fact that two
CATA bus routes serve the fairgrounds. CATA routes also serve local
college campuses and, with classes now in session, Central Arkansas
CoR leaders hope their ads will reach students as well. Two new
Secular Student Alliance groups have formed this semester
under the Central Arkansas CoR umbrella.
Beyond this, the Little Rock campaign is part of a nationwide effort.
Since the spring of 2009 there have been similar bus ad and billboard
campaigns in 25 states and the District of Columbia. These include an
April 2010 bus and billboard campaign in Fayetteville, Arkansas, as
well as campaigns in Arizona, California, Colorado, Florida, Illinois,
Iowa, Kentucky, Louisiana, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan,
Minnesota, Missouri, Montana, New Jersey, New York, Ohio, Oklahoma,
Oregon, Pennsylvania, Texas, Utah, Washington, and West Virginia.
"The Little Rock effort is part of a nationwide awareness campaign
that is reaching out to the millions of atheists and agnostics living
in the United States," explained Fred Edwords, national director of
the United Coalition of Reason. "Often such nontheists don't realize
there's a community for them because our culture is dominated by
biblical faiths. We want our work to show them they aren't alone."
Attracting the like minded isn't the only goal of the effort. "We want
folks to understand that atheists and agnostics are a legitimate part
of the community," said LeeWood Thomas, media representative for the
Central Arkansas Coalition of Reason. "People like us live all over
Arkansas. We're your friends and family, neighbors and coworkers, and
maybe even the person sitting next to you in church."
"Being visible is important to us," Edwords concluded, "because
nontheists in our society often don't know many people who think like
they do. We are reaching out to them, just as traditionally religious
organizations reach out to their audience.
