A group of atheists in Madison, Wis., is complaining that the image of Mother Theresa on a mass transit pass is an improper violation of the separation of church and state, reports The Capital Times.
The Freedom From Religion Foundation says a picture of Mother Teresa on the Madison Metro System’s April bus pass is “an insult to Madisonians who value women’s rights, and the separation of church and state,” says Anne Nicole Gaylor, president of the foundation.
“Mother Teresa lived in parts of the world where she saw firsthand the overwhelming poverty and tragedy resulting from women’s lack of access to birth control. Yet she campaigned stridently throughout her life at every opportunity against access to contraception, sterilization and abortion for anyone,” Gaylor said.
