Satan County Wisconsin

MADISON, Wis. - Members of the Freedom From Religion Foundation, the nation's largest group of atheists and agnostics, are gathered this weekend for nonprayer breakfasts and raffles for God-free currency at the group's 30th annual convention.

The foundation, based in Madison since its founding in the 1970s and boasting 11,300 members, has helped give Wisconsin's capital a reputation as a city filled with heathens ... "You expect those people to be communing with Satan," Bill O'Reilly once said.

The foundation is a watchdog group that advocates for the separation of church and state and promotes free thought ... The group has grown more than 50 percent from last year, co-president Dan Barker said. He credits an advertising campaign and publicity surrounding its high-profile lawsuit that challenged President Bush's faith-based initiative.
