Green Bay Wins Lawsuit, Sending The "Freedom From Religion Foundation" Packing

Yesterday afternoon, a federal judge dismissed a lawsuit by the Freedom From Religion Foundation against the City of Green Bay, Wisconsin.

Liberty Counsel successfully represented the City in a controversy over last year's Christmas display with a Nativity scene at City Hall. Last month, David Corry, Senior Litigation Counsel for Liberty Counsel, argued the case on behalf of the city.

We thank God for this important victory.

The Freedom From Religion Foundation (FFRF) uses intimidation and threats of attorney's fees against local communities who take any action that might acknowledge religion. FFRF is the most extreme, anti-religious, separationist organization in the country, claiming that its members are atheists and agnostics.

Freedom from Religion Foundation is based in Madison, Wisconsin, but also spreads its poisonous anti-God agenda into other states. The group recently sued the the Cherry Creek School District in Denver, Colorado because local schools officials integrate positive principles into their program. The FFRF claims that some of the principles taught are drawn from biblical teachings.

For example, one principle is creating a "caring school climate." FFRF claims this principle is linked to the teaching in the New Testament book of Mark, which says, "Whoever welcomes one of these little children in my name, welcomes me." FFRF does not like the fact that Christians may have played a role in developing the school program.

Thank you for your prayers and support as we do battle against groups like FFRF, the ACLU, Americans United for Separation of Church and State, and other radical, anti-religious groups that attempt to demolish the religious foundation of America.
