Ad for Richard Dawkins book on MSNBC
Hey everybody,
I watch Countdown with Keith Olbermann almost every evening. The other night there was an ad for Richard Dawkins book The God Delusion during commericals! I was surprised. The ad showed the cover of the book, gave its title and stated that it was 5 months on the New York Times bestseller list. "Buy it Today!"
For those of you who do not live in the United States, seeing an ad for a book about the folly of religious belief by an atheist is rare and simply incredible.
Looks like atheism is beginning to come out of the closet. It's no longer the boogie man it once was.

I've never seen the commercial before, hopefully someone will manage to upload it to youtube or something.
I'd like to see it.

Well, that's 6 months (not 5) it's been on the NYT Bestseller list.
The TV ad:

Yep, that's the one!
See, I'm not the only one who found it amazing! "How about that?!"

Nice!
It's posted at Dawkins site as well: God Delusion Ad
Fantasmic! That'll get them thinking!... Or... book burning... but hopefully thinking.
Even theists like money more than they like god. Under this context it doesn't seem so surprising.
