Atheists consider their poster campaign a success
The Freethinkers' Association considers its campaign a success. It has received just over 25,000 francs in donations since the beginning of the year for its controversial posters.
They bear the slogan "There's probably no God - so don't worry, enjoy life" and caused a national stir because Zug and Lucerne initially banned their display. Thanks to donations, the posters are now to be put up again in a dozen cities this fall - including Lucerne and Zug, as the association announced on Sunday. The campaign has raised public awareness of the fact that there is a growing number of people in Switzerland who live without religion. The campaign has also had an impact on transport companies: In St. Gallen and Bern, religious advertising is no longer permitted.
