Thank God

Thank God I'm an Atheist, Santa Maria del Soccorso church, Livorno“Grazie a Dio sono ateo” (Thank God I'm an Atheist): I wonder if the writer knows he is quoting Luis Buñuel.
This is the side wall of the church of “Santa Maria del Soccorso”.

Who knows! Still no right to damage the wall.

I love urban interventions in walls and walls, provided they are related to artistic activities. A good photo.

Everyone always trying to get their messages out even if it is someone else's quote.

Well, Luther nailed some papers on a church door once. Maybe this "statement of faith" on the church wall is a continuation of such traditions.

I love Bunuel's humour and subscribe to it entirely. I'm not too sure about graffitis on anything and even less a church though...

Even if I know graffiti is the new kind of art, I am upset when I see it on public monuments of any kind. There are enough other walls...

I love the quote from Bunuel, but I'm not sure if I like the way it is used!

A clear message!
I guess I would not have understood more than "Grazia"......

Or maybe it's a thought that many atheists have? Very interesting.
