Jessica Ahlquist: Atheist Student Interviewed at Playboy Man

#1  Postby DoctorE » May 29, 2013 8:52 am

Jessica Ahlquist faces a torrent of hate for her stand against a prayer banner at Cranston High School. A federal judge sided with her, but former friends, town officials, and others are coming at her with insults and death threats. But her atheist activism paid off, with a humanist organization giving her a 40k college scholarship. a speaking tour around the country, and now the Hugh M, Hefener First Amendment award!

Level headed young woman, what's not to like.
As long as your ideology identifies the main source of the world's ills as a definable group, it opens the world up to genocide. -Steven Pinker.
