Protection by law for non theist, atheists, etc.
Con gran entusiasmo se ha recibido esto en mi correo y lo comparto. No me pueden ahora discriminar por ser ateo o no creyente.
President Obama signed the bill!

Dear Ivan,
I wanted to be the first to share with you the big news: Just an hour ago,
President Obama signed the Frank Wolf International Religious Freedom Act
into law. It is the first law in history to recognize “nontheists”
and protect our
community from discrimination.
This is a tremendous recognition of the humanist movement—we’re here, we’re
standing strong, and we will fight to protect our values.
This new law strengthens the government’s work to promote international religious
freedom and states, “The freedom of thought, conscience, and religion is understood
to protect theistic and nontheistic
beliefs as well as the right not to profess or practice
any religion.”
The law also condemns “specific targeting of nontheists,
humanists, and atheists
because of their beliefs” and all attempts to forcibly compel “nonbelievers
or nontheists
to recant their beliefs or to convert.”
Celebrate with us, and share this historic achievement proudly with your
friends and family. Post it on Facebook. Tweet about it. Take a selfie and show that
you are proud to be a humanist. And please—donate generously to help make
more of these legislative victories possible.
Together, we made history. Thank you.
Sincerely,
Maggie Ardiente
Director of Development and Communications
