Billboard In Rancho Cucamonga Embraces Godlessness

RANCHO CUCAMONGA (AP) ― Atheists and agnostics now have a San Bernardino County billboard embracing Godlessness. The "Imagine No Religion" billboard in Rancho Cucamonga was put up by the Freedom From Religion Foundation, which advocates separation of church and state.

The 12,000-member Madison, Wis.-based group now has billboards in nine states that include such messages as "Reasons Greetings" and "Beware of Dogma."

Foundation co-president Annie Laurie Gaylor says the nation is peppered with churches and the billboards "introduces the belief that our society doesn't need religion to function."

The billboard at Archibald Avenue and Foothill Boulevard features a stained-glass motif. It will be up through December.
