Billboard Attacks Year of the Bible Resolution!
Details
Remember House Resolution 535, a non-binding resolution declaring 2012 the Year of the Bible, passed unanimously in the State House on January 28th. Since then some liberal Democrats said the resolution was sneaked passed them and hidden in amongst several other bills and they would not have voted for it if they’d known it was there. According to the Philadelphia Weekly State Representatives Babette Josephs and Mark Cohen “and others” have apologized for their vote to declare 2012 the Year of the Bible.
Now the American Atheists have a billboard up in Harrisburg condemning passage of the resolution. State House member Thaddeus Kirkland, who supported the resolution calls it racist. Click here for the full story.
