LINCOLN In the that-didnt-take-long category, an atheist sign was posted Friday at the first-floor Rotunda of the Nebraska State Capitol, one day after a first-ever Nativity scene was erected there.
Religion is but myth and superstition, the sign says.
Scott Braley, a Lincoln electrical contractor, said he felt compelled to provide an atheist message after learning about the Nativity scene, placed in the Capitol by a Catholic-associated group, the Thomas More Society.
Braley said he is an atheist and a member of the Freedom from Religion Foundation, which seeks to keep religion and government separate.
