Here's the first example Doug Patton cites in an article written for Copusa:
At the state capitol in Olympia, Washington, Gov. Christine Gregoire (a Democrat, of course), has approved the placement of an atheist sign for public display next to a nativity scene. The sign reads: "At this season of THE WINTER SOLSTICE, may reason prevail. There are no gods, no devils, no angels, no heaven or hell. There is only our natural world. Religion is but myth and superstition that hardens hearts and enslaves minds. Placed by the Freedom From Religion Foundation on behalf of its Washington State Members."
I pray that reason prevail and Gov. Gregoire's constituency accept the God who made them before it's too late! Who wants to take a chnace on hell?

this makes me so sad, but thanks for posting it.
This sign could actually backfire on them. It may cause people to ask themselves the question, what do I believe about God?
It is better to ask the question and pursue an answer than to never even consider the question and continue through life blindly.
Faith and reason and two complimentary gifts we have to help understand our world.
