Sunday Assembly, a Worldwide Movement

Although, granted, the major of them are located in the U.S. and Europe.

A 'church' for atheists? Yes, one is coming to Madison, with monthly services.  (Wisconsin State Journal, 8/3/2014)

How it got its start.   The first-ever Sunday Assembly was held about 18 months ago in London, launched by two British comedians, Sanderson Jones and Pippa Evans. In a guest column in the New York Times, the two said they started Sunday Assembly “because the idea of meeting once a month to sing songs, hear great speakers and celebrate the incredible gift of life seems like a fun, and useful, thing to do.” 

There is now a nonprofit corporation in New Jersey called Sunday Assembly in America, which is providing support to existing U.S. assemblies and helping launch new ones.

NoRoJo2016: As if we need more evidence

U.S. Senator Ron Johnson to appeal Obamacare lawsuit. (Milwaukee Journal Sentinel, 8/2/2014)

The injury is to the people of Wisconsin.   U.S. District Judge William Griesbach in Green Bay had ruled in July that Johnson and his aide, Brooke Ericson, didn't have legal standing to bring their lawsuit because they hadn't been injured.

On January 23, 2002, Judge Griesbach was nominated by President George W. Bush to a seat on the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Wisconsin. 

But RoJo's not done yet.  Why I took Barack Obama to court.  (Milwaukee Journal Sentinel, 8/2/2014)
