Member of Congress holds no god-belief
From Secular Coalition for America - Interesting stuff!
-----------------------
This coming Monday, March 12 the Secular Coalition for America will make a historic announcement: a member of Congress has agreed to be identified with our community.
This ground-breaking release is the much-anticipated outcome of a recent contest we initiated to seek the identity of the highest level openly nontheistic elected official. The purpose of the contest was to explore visibility problems for nontheists in public service.
Please visit our Web site at http://www.secular.org/ for background and more information on our upcoming announcement ... and please tell your friends about the momentous day ahead for nontheistic Americans.
Best wishes,
Lori Lipman Brown, Director
The Secular Coalition for America
