Werbung für ein Leben ohne Gott

Von Jens Lubbadeh

Gottlos glücklich: In Großbritannien und Spanien rollten sie bereits, nun sollen auch in deutschen Städten Busse Werbung für ein glückliches Leben ohne Gott machen. Die atheistischen Initiatoren sehen sich als Aufklärer, nicht als Missionare.

 nach Angaben des Statistischen Bundesamtes gehören rund ein Drittel aller Deutschen keiner Religion an. Eine 2005 durchgeführte Erhebung von AP-Ipsos ergab, dass nur 22 Prozent der Deutschen keine Zweifel an der Existenz Gottes hegen. Atheisten und Agnostiker kommen dagegen gemeinsam auf 23 Prozent

Vatican backs abortion row bishop
A senior Vatican cleric has defended the excommunication in Brazil of the mother and doctors of a young girl who had an abortion with their help.
The nine-year-old had conceived twins after alleged abuse by her stepfather.
It comes a day after Brazil’s president criticised the Brazilian archbishop who excommunicated the people involved. Brazil only permits abortions in cases of rape or health risks to the mother. Doctors said the girl’s case met both these conditions, but the Archbishop of Olinda and Recife, Jose Cardoso Sobrinho said the law of God was above any human law. He said the excommunication would apply to the child’s mother and the doctors, but not to the girl because of her age
“It is a sad case but the real problem is that the twins conceived were two innocent persons, who had the right to live and could not be eliminated,” he said. “Life must always be protected, the attack on the Brazilian Church is unjustified.”
