Fundie Atheists
They're now suing a school board because a school mandates "a moment of silence"? Money quote:
A 14-year-old suburban girl and her dad, atheist activist Rob Sherman, filed a lawsuit Friday in U.S. District Court that challenges the constitutionality of a law requiring Illinois public schools to observe a moment of silence.
Sherman and his daughter Dawn, a freshman at Buffalo Grove High School, contend that the law providing for "silent prayer or for silent reflection on the anticipated activities of the day" runs afoul of the constitutional separation of church and state.
It makes you want to sympathize with the Christianists. Can we exercise a little mutual respect on these matters?
