They put this billboard up in the heart of Times Square in New York it reads keep the merry dump the -- Our very own Ainsley Earhardt hit the streets of New York City to see what people thought of this advertisement take a look.

Please -- your reaction about this billboard do you -- doesn't says -- the Marion Christmas it keeps Hanna but dump the mess -- a picture of Jesus.

What -- thing.

I don't like it might not well why is it easier to believe in I mean in a Fuzzy red -- than it is about.

Nick Price -- lived with him was born 2000 years ago -- this is the reason for the season -- really crazy.

I mean wasn't.

Another message that I don't like it why -- -- like him.

Because I think Christmas is priced.

That's that you see that.

That's why ridiculous because that's what it's all bond.

About Jesus this -- says keep the married he keeps Hanna but dump the mess they're calling price to -- I think that's wrong I think Christmas is about Christ as the main where it all started.

Santa Claus came after Christ knowledge not not on that I -- we serve the living god that's beside the wall this sort of -- Christmas the whole holiday season as the calls of Christ putting up a billboard is.

Unfortunately -- inflammatory is that and -- since early dementia and to educate people I had not even notice that.

Harbaugh I think it's disgusting and if Christ were here today what do you think he would say about that billboard.

-- disappointed I think -- surprised to see that in new York and I just I see anything -- what's your message for the people who put that up.

If you really believe that there's a reason news you know try composure your viewpoint and everyone else so they're saying they should keep -- and Democrats.

There they had to dump one which phone would you would you -- Wow joining me on the showed days supplement he is the president of American atheist group that put -- that nobody even have your own money -- -- get a from somebody else a donor while we have lots of donors and American Atheists all right.

I don't really care we views are -- that you don't believe in god that's fine.

You're free to believe whatever you believe this is just Christians you're picking on by the way.

In other words have you ever done a billboard campaign against.

People that are Jewish or Muslim sister half and we would have you done against them.

We've put up a billboard in Elizabeth, New Jersey that's said you know it's a myth in Arabic and we put up a billboard in Brooklyn -- said you know it's an always grab it.

Actually the Islamic billboard the Islamic people were actually all about what this is a free country you can say what you want and some people agreed in some people do.

Look at the reaction to the Danish cartoons or look at the reaction.

To this YouTube video.

You -- Salman Rushdie in the satanic verses areas and some very.

But you know what that is that's that's actually a form of terrorism that's actually a form of -- getting hostile -- their religious beliefs.

Without imposing the rule of law that they scare us moved into obeying their -- -- -- I don't really until you believe iPhone but I get -- -- an atheist I'm not gonna sit here and convention you believe nothing can come out of nothing which is what I believe atheists in the end have to believe.

But that's that's not the argument.

You want to insult people and do you want to attack them you wanna.

-- you know extended and the -- on their holiday.

And you just wanna be rooted narcissistic and need wife -- we have never put up a billboard criticizing people we criticize religion and religion machine perfectly open -- people they believe in religion I'm a Christian I look at it I look at a picture of Jesus and you wanna done.

Is wanna rub salt in -- won't know why you do an attack because this is the time of year when so many atheists who call themselves Christians grabbed the drag themselves to church.

Against their own will because they think eight -- who call themselves Christian you know -- -- call themselves Christian sitting -- let me explain what I'm saying you're okay.

They drag themselves to church because they think the church is an integral part of Christmas and it's not.

-- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- Don't know how people of the -- to go to church will come out and we don't know that a large.

Population of Christians are actually atheist yes -- -- core it if they are really atheists.

And they don't have the courage of their convictions I mean -- tissue come on this program.

And you say you're an atheist right I would -- -- a lot of familial and social pressure that keeps atheists in the closet and we an American Atheists are trying to relieve that nobody skipped over it -- you or too full of yourself to believe the people care.

No they -- Dario -- -- there I know you don't care shined up a lot of people do care and they care very much because they think -- alone.

-- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- In this is -- if there's no fantasy here the reality is that every do you think there's some believe -- -- Big Bang theory you believe in evolution yes of course I believe and eventually -- -- -- And I -- -- -- -- question has so win it all.

All of those molecules and energy come together to collide to create universe is -- universe is this on the moon the stars the planet's.

Human life animal life and plant that just happened randomly by accident.

The fact -- nothing came out of nothing else the opposite is god did it and where did god come from he came from nothing to he had apparently has yet but typically hear it.

But now it's not a juror -- you're looking at this from a very.

Narrow -- testicle finish what about the knowledge about science you can't believe -- something greater than you know that's not it at all the fact is that an absence of knowledge if we don't know something.

That's not evidence for an invisible magic man in the sky.

That's evidence for the fact that we need to learn more about what it means.
