American Atheists, Inc. announces the first "Year Of the Bible" billboard in Harrisburg, PA., sponsored in part by The Pennsylvania Nonbelievers. This first billboard can be seen starting March 1st, 2012 at the intersection of 13th Street and Paxton St. It was designed by American Atheists, Inc. Pennsylvania State Director, Ernest Perce V. The design references Colossians 3:22, which reads, "Slaves obey your masters."
The controversial image of a slave bound in chains sends the message that the House of Representatives should not be celebrating a barbaric and Bronze Age book. We do not in any way condone slavery, but the bible does. The United States has outgrown such hideous actions toward humanity.
