Atheist Group Running Amuck Again

January 13, 2010

Dear BSU Partners and Friends,


Happy New Year! And what a year it’s going to be as we stand together for freedom. As a matter of fact, we have an opportunity right here at the first of the year to make our voices heard.

 

Again the atheist group Freedom From Religion based in Madison, Wisconsin is making another attempt to halt free exercise of faith in America. This group has filed a lawsuit to abolish the National Day of Prayer, which will be commemorated in 2010 on May 6. This group of atheists/agnostics claim that the National Day of Prayer, which has been an organized yearly event in our Nation since 1952, creates a “hostile environment” for nonbelievers and that it violates the First Amendment.

 

You and I are aware that this day of prayer clearly does not violate the First Amendment, neither does it create a so-called hostile environment, as this day is strictly voluntary and it is open to people of all faiths, who may freely elect to be involved or not.

 

The great patriot Alexander Hamilton said in the heat of the American Revolution, “We must stand for something...or we will fall for anything.” Now is the time to stand up and be counted for the Lord Jesus Christ.

 

What can you do? Two specific things:

 

1) E-mail the White House at www.whitehouse.gov/contact and let them know your firm support for the National Day of Prayer

 

2) Contact your U.S. Senator at www.senate.gov and Member of the U.S. House of Representatives at www.house.gov

 

Most importantly as we take action we pray for the atheists in this organization as well as other misguided people who seek to block freedom in America as opposed to foster and encourage it.
