Meeting Description

Who

All supporters of the separation of church and state with rational-based leadership should attend.

Organized by

"Our event takes place in the Rotunda."
--Bjorn Watland

Details

Minnesota Atheists strongly value the separation of church and state. To remind our government of who they represent, we make our collective voices heard in the State Capitol while our fellow citizens observe the National Day of Prayer. Every voice counts. If you can take a long lunch break, or have the free time, we would appreciate making your presence known with us. You'll be hearing from the leadership of Minnesota Atheists, as well as from our members. Prepare to be moved by famous speeches you may have heard before, and listen for original orations on separation and the rights of atheists.

Come be a part of history and make your voice heard.

For information about the event, you can contact info@mnatheists.org.

  • Brad Bolin
    "Sound system was the only downer. Tough place to amplify!"

  • Grant Steves
    "An excellent experience for all in attendance. The number helped to underline the importance of reason and separation of religion and government."

  • Jill
    "I attended over my lunch hour and it went too long, although I did appreciate all of the speakers. Need to keep it shorter, like 45 mintues instead of 75 minutes. As I was leaving, I had to walk through the "praying" people, and as all of the bowed heads and clasped hands were listening to their leader, he was telling their god to help the women understand their place in the home .... to obey their husbands!"
