I am on a stationery mailing list. It's usually a lot of fun. Today someone posted one of those tired old urban legends about how athiests want to take religion off the airwaves. I went to Snopes and, in about 30 seconds, found the repudiation of the message. So I went back to the original message and typed this:
It amazes me that people get taken in so easily by scams. This is a VERY old Urban Legend. There is NO such bill pending. Before spreading misinformation such as this please take a few minutes to verify it. Things like this do nothing more than to propagate hate and mistrust between people of differing views.
