I think it's strange that the Church thought that it would be more useful to do something like this. Would it not make more sense for them to use the money to produce pamphlets that discuss why it is bad to abort? To use the money to educate people on why they believe abortion is wrong, rather than just say that god says it is? With this poster, they're not going to change the minds of anyone who doesn't already agree, and that seems like a waste of money to me.
But, to discuss the other questions involved...
I don't know if using "god" in this advertisement is wrong. The church honestly believes that it is preaching the word of god, and therefore it seems that the use of the word "god" on the billboard is justified.
I don't agree, but I won't fight against it... I'd rather just use better methods of education to push a secular pro-choice agenda.
Oh, and I agree with Lebell. I don't think this is philosophy either.
