Presentation – 11/10/11 ‘The Luzerne County Holiday Display Incident

0 minutes, 43 seconds Read

I was invited to speak at PA Nonbelievers‘ 11/10/11 meeting in Lemoyne, PA.
In my presentation, “The Luzerne County Holiday Display Incident,” I discussed the church/state battle I was involved with in 2009, the importance of secular activism, my hate mail, and much more.
For those of you who are unfamiliar with the ‘incident,’ I filed a church/state complaint in 2009 regarding a religious holiday display at the Luzerne County, PA courthouse. I quickly became “the third most hated person in Luzerne County” (according to a local DJ), received a tremendous amount of hate mail from the community at large including persons whom I attended college and high school with, and ultimately was successful in upholding church/state separation.
Thanks so much to the receptive audience at to PA Nonbelievers for having me.
