Anne Nicol Gaylor, one of the founders of the Freedom From Religion Foundation, died Sunday.
Gaylor, 88, formed the group with her daughter Annie Laurie Gaylor in 1976 in Madison and is credited with expanding the small group to a large national association of atheists and agnostics while serving as its president from 1978 to 2004.
The foundation often courted controversy and filed lawsuits challenging religion in schools, government and social programs.
She died at a Fitchburg hospice after she was hospitalized May 30 following a fall at her Madison apartment, according to a news release posted Monday on the Freedom From Religion Foundation website.

So, now she has learned the truth.
Hope she packed those asbestos undies.
She ain't free from it any more!
She’s dead, Jim.
Ding dong the witch is dead. Annie Laurie, the bitch is back.
Another heathen that’s going to find out if there is a stern and vengeful God.
Makes my day.
I won’t shed a tear for her.
“...and, being in Hell, [s]he lifted up [her] eyes...”
Sad.
The death of any person encourages some thinking about how they lived and what they considered important. No one really knows the place of her departed soul, but we do know the the priorities her life. I can’t celebrate her passing, but neither can I celebrate her life.
OOPS!
Doesn’t make my day. You think Christ celebrates when a heathen dies? I sure don’t. Mourning is definitely called for at that funeral.
I’m sorry for her. Damned sorry. God have Mercy on her.
“God have Mercy on her.”
There are some that think that those who don’t believe in God are being showed “mercy” when God agrees to their wishes. “Okay - you don’t believe in Me - you don’t need to be around Me.”
I read one Christian writer that had all sorts of back-up on his idea that EVERYONE will be in the presence of God for eternity. But for those that did not believe and obtain salvation, God’s everlasting light shining on them will instead seem like eternal fire on the unbelievers - exposing the sin and corruption of their hearts to themselves. Interesting concept.
I hope she says “hi” to Madalyn Murray O’Hair.
All dressed up and nowhere to go...
She is no longer an atheist. She is most likely evangelizing Jesus where she is at...
“In for a surprise”.
I hope so!
Hell is a religion-free place.
I didn’t say HE celebrates. I don’t know what HE does and you don’t either.
I said I celebrate. And not because the heathen died but for the opportunity that the heathen has to expand their consciousness as to whether there is a God.
Anyway, save me from your piousness.
