On Dec. 30, 2008, Michael Newdow filed suit in U.S. District Court to stop prayers and religious invocations at Barack Obama's Jan. 20, 2009 presidential inauguration.  The U.S. Constitution itself establishes the oath of office for the president (Article II, Section 1) and it properly contains no religious references.  Newdow's lawsuit, titled "Newdow v. Roberts," included group plaintiffs such as the American Humanist Association, the Freedom From Religion Foundation, Atheist Alliance International, and Minnesota Atheists.  The lawsuit also featured individual plaintiffs, such as Michael Newdow, Dan Barker, Annie Laurie Gaylor, and Minnesota Atheists president August Berkshire.  Michael Newdow will be our guest for the entire hour to discuss his latest attempt to uphold the wall of separation between state and church.
Produced by Minnesota Atheists.  Directed by Mike Haubrich.  Hosted by Stephanie Zvan.  Interview by August Berkshire and George Kane.
