Atheist Strongly Attacks God, Bible and Religion By JoAnn Jacobsen-Well- s Tribune Staff Writer The founder of the American Atheists organization said Saturday that the God, named in the Bible, is a murderer, a liar, a thief. And, the Bible, said Madalyn Murray OHair, is "disgusting, sadistic, hate-ridde- anti-huma- n, anti-life- , anti-wome- "There is no way that anyone who read the Bible cover to cover could accept or believe it, she emphasized. Mrs. OHair and her son, Jon G. Murray, American Atheist Center director, Austin, Tex., were in Salt Lake City Saturday to conduct second-dasessions of the 11th Annual National American Atheist Convention. y The convention is sponsored by the Society of Separatiomsts Inc., a noneducational corpoprofit, ration, dedicated to the complete and absolute separation of state and church. About 90 atheists, many of whom head up state chapters of the organization throughout the United States, gathered Saturday for meetings in the Salt Lake Hilton, 150 W. 6th South. The meetings will continue on Easter Sunday. Although he admitted that Salt Lake City's geographical isolation probably cut down convention attendance (they generally plan for 250 participants), Mr. Murray said the site was selected because Utah needs a challenge " The state is the nations most religiously oppressive, second only to Arkansas, he said. Mrs. OHair said Salt Lake was picked for the convention because, We have a very strong chapter in Salt Lake, and Mormons have erected a theocracy in Utah." In her opening remarks Saturday she reputed Zion and every idea it puts forth, and told conference participants that, Your trek to Zion is an example of your good mental health. In a quarter-pag- e ad in Saturdays Salt Lake Tribune, another of Mrs. OHairs sons, William, disputed his mothers message. Bill Murray, who became a born-agaiChristian two years ago, and now n t heads the Faith Foundation, of Houston and Denver, follows his mother and to correct brother in their travels some of the damage the atheists leave in their path. Mr. Murray Friday kicked off a prayer vigil and invited the atheists to call the Valley Assembly of God Church to obtain counseling. In his ad, addressing atheists, he said, Eve walked in your shoos, and I can tell you that you are on a dead-enroad, leading to sadness, emptiness and an unfulfilled life. I found Jesus Christ to be very much alive today and able to fill my life with fulfillment, love and joy. In 1963, Mrs. O'Hair filed a suit on See Page B-- Column 2 d V I |
