Atheist Group Is Established at a Christian School; Texas Christian U. Org. Wants School Recognition

A group of students -- who attend the Texas Christian University -- has created an atheist organization, and now wants official recognition from their school, the Christian News Network website reports today (February 26, 2013). The group is called the "Freethinking Frogs," a reference to the school mascot.

It was formed by 32-year-old transfer student Alexis Lohse. She told the Christian News Network that the organization -- which has about 30 members --  is for people who are agnostic and secular.

University officials say that they have received the application for official recognition, and that a decision will be made soon.

Located about 35 miles from Dallas, Texas Christian University is affiliated with the Christian Church through the Disciples of Christ, a Protestant denomination.
