Stop the Praying!

The Freedom From Religion Foundation has filed a lawsuit in an attempt to stop the National Day of Prayer. The atheist and agnostic group says it’s a government endorsement of religion. Named in the suit: President Bush, the governor of Wisconsin (the group is based there) and other government officials. The National Day of Prayer takes place on the first Thursday of each May and the lawsuit claims it makes for a "hostile environment for nonbelievers”. The wife of James Dobson, Shirley Dobson is chairwoman of the National Day of Prayer Task Force.
