Atheists are accusing Iowa Gov. Terry Branstad (R) of having “violate[d] the First Amendment and the rights of non-Christian Iowans” by supporting a Bible-reading marathon.
The atheist activist group American Humanist Association, with the support of other activist organizations, including the Freedom From Religion Foundation and the American Civil Liberties Union of Iowa, sent a stern warning to Branstad decrying an executive proclamation he sent out in April praising the Bible and encouraging Iowans to participate in the Iowa 99 County Bible Reading Marathon.
