Atheist group says 'In No God We Trust' banners vandalized in downtown Fort Worth

FORT WORTH -- At least four banners hung downtown earlier this week that advertise an upcoming seminar to be held by an atheist nonprofit group have been damaged with cuts, the organization said.

Sixty-six banners were suspended from lamp posts, and others were produced in case they were needed as replacements because of vandalism, said Terry McDonald, director-treasurer for the group, Metroplex Atheists.

The number of damaged banners was accurate as of Wednesday night, McDonald said. He said he did not know whether others had been damaged since the Wednesday report.

“In No God We Trust” is printed on the yellow banners. The bottom of the banner says “education seminar” and lists the website for Metroplex Atheists.
