Article: Red Bull ad offensive

they will cancel it. If they want to express free speech they can always base their next ad on islam or they can use the next ad to poke fun at atheism.

They achieved what they set out to achieve - exposure. Christians in this country cannot have a laugh about their religion and cause such a fuss, and what a cheap advert for Red Bull! It ran twice and is now pulled. This advert will gain exposure as though it had been aired for 2 weeks. I noticed some newspapers have picked up on it too.

Its a win in Red Bulls' eyes.
 
The Christians getting hysterical and mobbing again. Ug. Another reason to dislike religion. /sigh

It is only a pathetic and weak god that needs its followers to do its work for it.
 
And you thoughtt only the Religion of Peace™ is this daft.

Edit: Ah, I see the threads have been merged. Weird when that happens.

We'll just stop buying the product, that action alone will force them to withdraw the ad.

WAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA....


*breathes*


WAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Thanks for my morning laugh dude.... the ppl who will boycott Red Bull over this advert will be more than covered by those who will try it BECAUSE of the advert.

And if Jesus is offended, he can complain... the rest of you complain on his behalf need to shut up.
 
Sorry I also agree in stopping this, we don't make fun of Muslims, Hindu's etc. Why do it to Christianity?

Do unto others as you would have them do to you. Respect Christianity, the main religions come from the same roots but branched out to seperate religions, respect the roots of these religions which includes Christianity, Muslim etc.

Rubbish. Ill only respect something worthy of respect. A bunch of hysterical religious people running around and pulling adverts is not respect worthy. Its effing lame and worth nothing. Stop behaving like the Taliban.

I make fun of everything...

If you can't laugh at yourself, you need to take the stick out of your arse....
And those bitching and moaning about this advert, are precisely the type of people who don't deserve respect.. and if Christianity is offended by this advert, then Christianity can complain...

Huh? We do it all the time, and they also act all butthurt and demand ads/cartoons be removed all the time. They even threaten to suicide bomb cartoonists (peacefully of course) and people usually cave in to the pressure and self-censor.
 
Its wrong , Red bull should pull it from the air. Why make fun of religion in the first place ? Something that is sacred to Billions ?

Cows are sacred to Hindi's, that does not stop us from eating beef. I take it you eat beef, so if you do, you only respect SOME beliefs and not others. Sound familiar?

If we had to respect everyone's crazy beliefs we would not get anywhere as a species.

There is a difference between not respecting someones belief and being a dick. Eating a beef burger in the presence of a Hindu is not the same as waving it in his face the whole time going "WHOO, HERE'S YOUR GOD HINDU MAN"

Most of y'all are a bunch of dicks...

What is the difference?

You're defiling someones belief by eating a beef burger period.. whether its in his face or not.

There is a big difference in my opinion , firstly I eat meat , I don't ridicule it. If I would post a pic of a man in front of Mcdonalds in India that would be deemed poking fun at a religion , I would not do that.

Also , when I do eat , I appreciate my food and where it came from , I don't disrespect it. That's just me.

Some beliefs might seem crazy to you but its not too millions of others.
