Atheist Ad Upsets Bus Driver

Tweet

An advertisement purchased by atheists has upset a religious bus driver to the point where his job may soon be on the line. * At this point, Ron Heather, from Southampton, Hampshire is working with his employers to find buses not sporting the offending words. * Both employer and employee are in a difficult position. The employer needs the income the advertisement brings in, and the employee needs the income brought in by the job. * First Bus gave a statement: "As a company we understand Mr Heather's views regarding the atheist bus advert and we are doing what we can to accommodate his request not to drive the buses concerned."* "As an organization we don't endorse any of the products or sentiments advertised on our buses. * "The content of this advert has been approved by the Advertising Standards Agency and therefore it is capable of being posted on static sites or anywhere else."
