Christianist Group's Billboard Compares Atheism To Murder

A group calling themselves "Answers in Genesis" recently took out a billboard in Texas depicting a young boy holding a gun.


Here’s how Answers in Genesis describes themselves:


An apologetics (i.e., Christianity-defending) ministry,
dedicated to enabling Christians to defend their faith and to proclaim
the gospel of Jesus Christ effectively…we also desire to train others
to develop a biblical worldview, and seek to expose the bankruptcy of
evolutionary ideas, and its bedfellow, a “millions of years old” earth
(and even older universe).


[..]Personally, I can’t believe they are implying that
non-believers, or to whom God “doesn’t matter,” are going to take a gun
and shoot someone in the face.


Striking yes; thoughtful, absolutely not.


Although supposedly their beef is
with evolution, I don’t see how that point is conveyed with this
picture. So, according to them, believing what Darwin had to say means
a person is lawless and will go on a killing rampage?
