Indiana Atheist Bus Campaign Lawsuit Settled

AP reported Monday that the Indiana Atheist Bus Campaign has settled its federal lawsuit against the Bloomington Public Transportation Corporation. IABC had been refused ad space to run its ad reading: " You Can Be Good Without God." (See prior posting.) Under the settlement agreement, IABC will be permitted to buy as much ad space as it wants on Bloomington busses at standard ad rates. The transit company will also pay a substantial portion of the legal fees incurred in the suit brought by ACLU-Indiana. IABC has posted a video of the transit system board's approval of the settlement. [Thanks to Scott Mange for the lead.]
