LAKE WORTH, FLORIDA:
ATHEISTS COMMANDEER INVOCATIONS
BEFORE CITY COMMISSION MEETS
EXCERPT:
Now that the U.S. Supreme Court has ruled that prayers in Jesus' name are constitutional at government meetings, local atheists in Lake Worth, Florida are filling the allotted invocation slots of the City Commission meetings with prayers to Zeus, Krishna and Thor along with refrains of “Satan conquers! Satan reigns! Satan commands!”
"We want to make a circus out of it. We want to make a fiasco out of it, we want to make it so freaking, utterly ridiculous that they rethink this [and stop ALL invocations]."
-- Chaz Stevens, resident/atheist

Denied Request to Open Palm Beach Meeting:
EXCERPT:
"In a recent interview with the Christian Post, Smith stated that he has sought to do the same in Palm Beach County, but was rejected.
“[M]y next invocation was aimed at the Palm Beach County Commissioners meeting. However, they have denied my request, opting instead to strictly allow the Commissioners themselves to give [overtly Christian-themed] invocations,” he said. “I consider this a monopoly of a certain religious viewpoint, the very opposite of the Supreme Court’s intention.”"
