Constitution of the United StatesArticle I, Section 1,
All legislative powers granted herein shall be vested in a Congress of the United States, which shall consist of a Senate and a House of Representatives.
Bill of RightsAmendment I
Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof.
The
Freedom From Religion Foundation charter ostensibly promotes the separation of church and state and educates the public on matters relating to atheism, agnosticism, and nontheism.
Educate the public, speeches, literature, radio programs, essay contests, and the like. OK, no problem so far, right?
Wrong! Ignore the free exercise of religion by the Hindus, Muslims, Buddhists, Wiccans, Satanists, and Atheists, leave those religions alone and go after the Christians (and Jews). Sue them, take them to court, tear down their crosses and crucifixes, ban their Bibles, condemn their holidays, mock their God and their faith in Him, bully America’s public schools and local authorities, force them to remove any semblance of anything Christian from the public sphere. Impose the FFRF religion of naturalism (atheism) on American culture.
FFRF was founded in 1978. Since then FFRF has filed thousands of lawsuits against Christians and Judeo-Christian institutions, social programs and initiatives. FFRF has sued at least three US presidents (National Prayer Breakfasts and Faith based initiatives), several state governors, the US military, county commissioners and boards of supervisors, universities, schools and school districts, faculty members, PTAs, athletic teams, athletes and cheerleaders, university chaplains, Christian churches, pastors, Jewish synagogues, rabbis, the National Park Service, WW2 Memorial, Holocaust Museum, 9/11 Memorial museum, IRS, our national motto, the Ark project and creation museum, book publishing companies, editors, authors, and lawyers. The list goes on.
In 1999, FFRF established the
Emperor has no clothes award. This award is given in recognition of "plain speaking" on the shortcomings of religion by public figures. Recipients include Richard Dawkins, Christopher Hitchens, Jesse Ventura, George Carlin, Ted Turner, Janeane Garofalo, Cenk Uygur, Dan Savage, and others. Public figures exercising their 1st amendment right to free speech to condemn our 1st amendment right to freely practice religion. Hypocrisy on public display.
The FFRF's methods of educating the public is intimidation, coercion, condemnation and protests through our legal system and anti-religion propaganda. These assaults are a direct violation of the establishment clause in the 1st amendment.
