Lawsuit threatened over atheist councilman in North Carolina.
Cecil Bothwell was recently sworn in as an Asheville City Councilman in direct contravention of the North Carolina constitution. Councilor Bothwell happens to be an atheist and the North Carolina state constitution disqualifies officeholders “who shall deny the being of Almighty God.”
As you’d expect the conservative religious nuts are up in arms over this turn of events and are threatening to take the city to the courts. Their chance of success is about as close to zero as you can get, since the North Carolina constitution violates the US Constitution, which requires that there be no religious test for any public office; apparently the US founding fathers had this thing about the separation of Church and State.
NC is not the only US state to have such discriminatory rules in its law books. Arkansas, Maryland, Pennsylvania, South Carolina, Tennessee and Texas, also have similar unenforceable laws barring atheists from holding public office.

Q: Where do you work?
I work for a company that’s currently re-doing one of our major interstates down here (I-595) I’m the office manager and its super fucking stressful which causes me to drink a shit ton of wine at night.. I’m not complaining about that part though.
My lame question. I’m actually studying for my Highway Engineering final right now (I’m using the term studying loosely) so I should know all about what it is your company is doing (but chances are I have no clue).
Josh, check it out here is the link to the website its actually a really cool project that they’re doing.. oh and you’re question was not lame.
As of November 1st, they need an Engineering Manager. You think they’ll take someone with no degree and the only experience being one introductory class?
