I thought we really had separation of church and state!

City Councilman Bothwell in Ashville, North Carolina is an Atheist! His conservative opponents want to enforce a NC constitutional provision that disqualifies officeholders "who shall deny the being of Almighty God." which was included when it was drafted in 1868 (http://www.google.com/hostednews/ap/article/ALeqM5jmS49f5wC7XKFjiS8tDTo3wv67hgD9CHCN2O0)

This is one more instance of discrimination based on non-religion! Words fail me!!!
