I really don't understand why atheists need to "convert" others to atheism. If you don't believe in God, why do you care if people do, let alone needing to spread your beliefs, since, in the end, there's no reward for spreading those beliefs, since you die, rot away, and basically are forgotten.

Not everyone is forgotten when they die, Atheist Bus ads are a reaction to many theistic ads that were prowling around in London. No one is really trying to convert anyone.

Well it sounds all depressing when you put it that way. Still, a step up from teh lake of fire, though.

People like to prosletyze their beliefs. It's natural. In politics, religion, whatever. That's why most people are here at canadaka fervently arguiong their points of view.

I agree. This millitant atheism is stupid. Isn't one of the man objections of religion is that it forces people to think the same?
