Atheist group s lawsuit against Orange County School District... www.wftv.com
"ORANGE COUNTY, Fla. —
A judge dismissed a lawsuit against the Orange County School District.
Before the dispute could play out in court, the school board agreed an atheist group could distribute its pamphlets when Christian groups leave Bibles inside certain public schools.
But, officials would not tell WFTV why they changed their minds.
An atheist group was allowed to leave pamphlets about atheism at schools like Boone High School last year, but they claimed the district censored their views so they took it to court.
The district allowed a Christian group to leave Bibles for students at 11 high schools.
That led to David Williamson and the Central Florida Free Thought Community to leave pamphlets about atheism at the same schools.
But the district wouldn't allow all of the literature because they said titles like "Jesus is dead" and "Why I am not a Muslim" would cause disruption. So, Williamson's group sued the district over freedom of speech.
"There's no censorship at all taking place on the Bible, but there's censorship on our materials," said Williamson.
WFTV found out the judge dismissed the case because school board members changed their minds and agreed to allow all of the group's materials.
Williamsons' group is appealing the case and it's still pending litigation.
"What's the point in appealing if you're getting what you want?" WFTV reporter Deneige Broom asked."
Why Atheists Are Finally Turning on Richard Dawkins
"One of Dawkins' biggest missteps came in 2011, when he blasted Rebecca Watson, a young atheist activist who wrote about feeling sexually harassed at a free-thought conference. In a now-infamous series of comments posted to the blog Pharyngula, Dawkins wrote in a message titled "Dear Muslima," "Stop whining, will you? ... For goodness sake grow up, or at least grow a thicker skin."
That incident—and others that did not involve Dawkins—led several atheist groups to include sexual-harassment policies at conferences and many say it swelled interest in the newly founded Women in Secularism conferences in 2012."
This last one sounds like religion to me.
None of the above substantiates your allegations about atheists.
