'God' billboards bring gay-friendly message (in New Zealand)
“Contrary to popular belief I don’t hate anyone who’s gay” – God’ say billboards and posters dotted around Auckland recently.

The gay-friendly message is part of the series of God quotes from Godmarks, a registered Charitable Trust seeking to promote Christian faith in a new way “that make people laugh, twist their perceptions and deepen their thoughts,” according to their website.

Godmarks declined an interview with GayNZ.com, saying they want to remain low-profile and “try to make it simply about the messages, and less about us people behind it.

“We want to keep putting the messages out there for as long as we can. We’re wanting to give something, not ask for something in return.” See ‘God’ billboards bring gay-friendly message

FYI: The "God" Billboards here in America are NOT made by the same group. The American billboards are from the Christo-Fascist GodSpeaks group. (Don't download the screensaver. It may contain spyware).

1. Glad their hearts are in the right place, but ...
God ventriloquism doesn't mean squat.

Not even when our side does it.
