interesting.

Atheist advertising signs on Des Moines Area Regional Transit buses that created a storm of controversy when they first went up on Aug. 1 have been taken down.

Officials with DART said the signs were not supposed to be on the buses in the first place.

Their message doesn't really scare me but either way I must ask, isn't this censorship? If they pay for advertising shouldn't they have their ad displayed especially if churches can make use of this media?

maybe (and their message is a non-issue for me as well), but when it is on a bus like that, it intimates that the driver (at least) and those passengers on the bus agree with it's presentation.

I understand (outside of the article, since it is where I live), that not only were passengers declining to ride, there were drivers refusing to drive those busses, even when their job-security was threatened.

Oopsy, DART! Although I personally LOVE the action taken, this could very well come back and bite them (DART) in the big bus behind. I'm suprised this hasn't received national news coverage.
