Merry Christmas: Obama Signs Act That Gives Protection To Atheists
When Bill Maher interviewed Barack Obama in November, he prodded the president about the status of atheists like himself. “It just feels like we are not included in the basket of diversity of America, which is odd because we are the biggest minority,” Maher said. “Don’t you think we should get a little more love?”
With a month left in his presidency, Obama has finally given non-religious persons that love. On December 16, Obama signed into law the Frank Wolf International Religious Freedom Act, the first religious freedom bill passed in the United States to offer explicit protection of atheists.
