A courthouse in Florida will soon be the site of what is hailed as the first atheist monument to be found on government property in the United States, the Christian Post website reports today (May 31, 2013).
Bradford County Courthouse will have a large granite bench placed by the national organization the American Atheists in late June 2013.
Dave Muscato -- public relations director for the American Atheists -- said the atheist monument was part of a settlement made with Bradford County over allowing a Ten Commandments display to remain at its courthouse.
Muscato added, "Equal access in this case works for us. We are thrilled to place what we believe to be the first ever atheist-sponsored monument on government property in the history of the United States."
