http://dailycaller.com/2017/09/27/distraught-atheists-respond-to-roy-moore-victory-stare-desperately-into-cosmic-abyss/Atheists across the nation decried Judge Roy Moore’s Tuesday victory in the Alabama Republican primary, saying his commitment to Christianity jeopardized the country.
The Secular Coalition of America issued a statement Wednesday lambasting Moore after his victory over Alabama Sen. Luther Strange for his various public assertions that America is a Christian nation and his hard stance against homosexuality and abortion. Representatives of the coalition called Moore a threat to religious liberty for his alleged “commitment to Christian supremacy.”
“Throughout his career and his campaign, Judge Moore has flaunted his disregard for the Constitution and unapologetically asserted that his religious beliefs must take precedence over the law,” Larry T. Decker, Executive Director of the SCA, said in the statement. “Judge Moore’s approach to politics is an attack on the separation of church and state and a rejection of the rule of the law.”
