Unoriginal repost of interesting article
Edited on Wed Apr-14-10 01:18 PM by dmallind
Probably one of the better amalgamations of perceptions about atheists from an unbiased source. I could quibble with the idea that militancy equates to self identification, and I highly doubt atheists are likely to be unpredictable jurors qua atheists (although they certainly would be polarizing if known) but overall very even handed and interesting to see the legal angle.

Essentially the whole thing is a tacit admission that a fair trial for a known atheist is unlikely and requires remediation.

1. That *is* an interesting article.
Good thing we have plenty of R/T inhabitants to tell us they don't believe there's such thing as anti-atheist discrimination. What a relief!
