Atheists sue over ‘National Day of Prayer’

MADISON, WISCONSIN — The nations largest group of atheists and agnostics is suing President Bush, the governor of Wisconsin and other officials over the federal law designating a National Day of Prayer. The Freedom From Religion Foundation sued Friday in U.S.district court, arguing that the President’s mandated proclamations calling on Americans to pray violates a constitutional ban on government officials endorsing religion.

The day of prayer, held each year on the first Thursday of May, creates a “hostile environment for nonbelievers, who are made to feel as if they are political outsiders,” the lawsuit said.  More>>>>>

    One important correction:
    Atheists = Jews.

    You got that right, Eddie. Atheism is a Jewish religion.

    What Makes You think Atheism is a Jewish religion?

    C’mon, folks – use that grey matter. Atheism is *not* a Jewish religion. It is not even a religion. It means that someone does *not* practice *any* religion. And, historically, most Atheists have been white people, intelligent enough to question the status quo. I, while personally being a Christian, still have a good deal of respect for many Western intellectuals who are/were atheists (such as Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche, whose ideals and philosophy should be wholly considered, and at least partially practiced, by anyone who considers their self to be pro-White and advocates improvement of their race…there’s a reason his philosophy was extremely popular with the National Socialist party – who I do not necessarily agree with on many core tenets of their belief, but who were certainly dedicated to the improvement of their race and the betterment of their selves).
    Please stop polluting the intellectual gene pool of our race with such asinine statements as “Atheists = Jews”. Practicing Judaism is the antithesis of Atheist philosophy.

    Thank you, TX_whiteman!

    I am a Wotanist (Asatru) and I think that homosexuality is vile and disgusting. Do I have a Biblical basis for my belief vis a vis my religion? No. Do I need one? No.

    I distrust Jews. Do I have a Biblical basis for my belief vis a vis my religion? No. Do I need one? No.

    I could go on, but I assume my point is made.

    You Christians need to seriously take a look at your religion- you worship a Jew and support a Jewish-derived faith. Islam, Christianity, and Judaism are all desert religions with roots in the Semitic Middle East and not Europe. Christianity is the reason most White people will not fight for their race. Ditch the Christinsanity so we can make some progress…
