Three Christian groups mount ad campaigns in response to atheists

LONDON - The Christian Party, the Trinitarian Bible Society and the Russian Orthodox Church, have hit back at the controversial atheist bus campaign currently running across London buses and tubes.

The religious groups will run three campaigns with CBS Outdoor starting next week.

The first, from Reverend George Hargreaves of The Christian Party, will carry the strapline; ‘There definitely is a God. So join The Christian Party and enjoy your life.'

It has booked a two-week campaign starting next week to run on 50 bendy buses in Central London, East London and the West End.

The Trinitarian Bible Society's ads will carry the line, ‘the fool hath said in his heart, There is no God'. The society has booked 100 bus supersides to run across London. The words are taken from Psalm 53.1 and will run for two weeks from 9 February.

Russian Hour TV, sponsors of the Russian Orthodox Church, has booked 25 Superside bus adverts to run in the London area, with the strapline ‘There IS a God, BELIEVE. Don't worry and enjoy your life.'
