Atheist Discriminated Against and what you can do about it!


What happened in Tampa?

As atheist Michael Harvey prepared to give the invocation July 29th 2004 city council meeting, council member Kevin White sought - unsuccessfully - to cut him off. Council members Mary Alvarez and Rose Ferlita joined White in walking off the dais.

Why? Because he was an atheist.


Councilman Kevin White - District 5

Contact him and let him know what you think about his bigoted behavior: http://www.tampagov.net/msg?id=120


Councilwoman Mary C. Alvarez, District 6

Contact her and let her know what you think about her bigoted behavior: http://www.tampagov.net/msg?id=44


Councilwoman Rose Ferlita, District 2

Contact her and let her know what you think about her bigoted behavior: http://www.tampagov.net/msg?id=47

3. This is what I wrote all three of them.
How dare you discriminate against some else for their religon. You wouldn't want it done to you. I thought Christian were suppose to believe in do unto other what you would have them do to you. I guess your a Christian in name only like all you rightwingers.

7. Unfortunately, atheists are not really protected by religious...
discrimination statutes, because we don't have a religion. Godless heathens!
