[quote=Mowicz;126387]I think it's amusing how everyone's arguing amongst themselves, while the group accomplished precisely what they wanted to. Do you, or do you not, all know what "KGP" is? Sounds like checkmate to me. Pamphlets don't catch peoples' attention, radical ideas do.
i get that pamphlets might not get peoples attention, but the methods used by the group are getting peoples attentions for the wrong reasons. Religion, or a fear of god can't be shoved in someones face. Its something that one needs to discover on their own.

It's Do you agree with Dave? all over again...
Just throwing this out there (although I hate all of this preachy advertising stuff)... but the fact that it is being brought into residences disturbs me. Those are people's homes for 8 months - and once you start bringing religious propaganda into people's homes without their consent I believe you've crossed a line.

While I agree, in particular, others may not. For this reason, you have to think of things from a 'maximizing efficiency' standpoint.
I can certainly understand why they did it, if they're trying to promote their own cause. Sure, it was overdone, no question...but how else are they going to grab attention when the majority of people have an attitude similar to the people in this very thread?

Exactly.

I just don't like the chalk all over the place. It takes a while to go away depending on where it is...there are still the words "HOG" on certain buildings. It just makes things look ugly sometimes...

I think technically that is graffiti, unless permission was given for them to write it all over campus. I'm assuming they got permission, but if not I really hope they're forced to clean it up.
Actually, I really hope they're forced to clean it regardless (once their campaign is over). No reason that the janitors should be doing extra work because of an ad campaign.

Those C4C shirts look sick, I would totally wear one if it was free. Depending on the price I might get one regardless.

As to whether God exists, check these pictures out and the article of the Red Sea Crossing... yes the crossing was a miracle done by God... The sea is 900 feet deep where they crossed and 5000 feet deep everywhere else meaning that the wall of water was 900 feet high. As proof of the crossing the bottom of the sea is littered with chariot wheels and chariots and bones. Just on the other side of the Red sea is mount sinai in saudi arabia, (Galations 4:25) with its burnt mountain top which is burnt black, and the remains of the golden calf altar. (of course the golden calf itself is not there as it was grinded into powder) Today it is heavily guarded by the saudi arabians. Check it out on Google Earth you can see the mountain and the fences and guardhouses and altar for yourself. Just type Jabal Al Lawz (mountain of laws) into the google earth search. This is not me just making stuff up. It is there to this day. http://www.accordingtothescr ipture...acrossing.html
