Dang ,...
...and I just bought a "support wildlife" plate last week.

Bullard, the plate's sponsor, isn't sure all groups should be able to express their preference. If atheists came up with an "I Don't Believe" plate, for example, he would probably oppose it.
=====================================================================

Now how does that make any consistent sense?

If people want the world to know what they believe in, why don't they just have a little sign made and put THAT on their car?

Why do people want to PAY the state of Florida extra money to put this (or any other message) on a license plate, when they can simply make a bumpersticker or sign that would say anything they wished with no court appearance needed at all?

I partly agree.

This would be a better money maker for the state if it were more inclusive.

What design would an agnostics plate display?

How about a question mark?
Why should anyone wish to inform random strangers of one's beliefs, anyway?


Seriously, it unspeakably dimwitted to pay the state to have it devise a slogan and a license plate, when you are free to put any sort of slogan you like on your car for free.

I don't think there is any reason why anyone would want to do this, as (1) a slogan is not going to convert anyone to any point of view, and (2) it might tick someone off to the degree that they would damage your car because they disagree with your slogan.

That's a good idea. It would represent such folks perfectly.

i have personalized plates
bumper stickers tend to reek of trailer trash, especially more than one
i only put a bumper sticker on for presidential campaigns then it comes right off
so yes I'll have this on my back window for a couple of months this fall

It would represent anyone who is intellectually honest.

No one has any proof whatever that God exists. or exactly what "God" is.

There are a lot of opinions, but no one KNOWS. People who say they do are just lying to themselves.

I don't think many agnostics would choose to reveal their doubt on a license plate. What would the purpose of that be?

YOU are proof that God exists BO. AND that he has a sense of humor.

[Amianthus]

YOU are proof that God exists BO. AND that he has a sense of humor.

Please explain this "proof" - after all, his existence is also "proof" of evolution. And evolution, not requiring a supreme being, is the simpler explanation.

How is evolution a simpler explanation?

If I were looking at a statue erosion might occur to me as a simpler explanation for the shaped stone , since erosion would not require a sculptor.  But somehow when I see a sculpture I suspect the stone had a sculptor inits history in spite of how this is not as simple as erosion.

Does evolution explain the origin of life?

Many of the building blocks for life are self assembling.

Define "life."
