Atheists from the Freedom from Religion Foundation say the governor's Scriptural message "seems more like a threat, or the utterance of a theocratic dictator, than that of a duly elected civil servant."

(Madison, WI)—Governor Scott Walker has raised the ire of atheists after a posting in which he highlighted a Bible Verse: Philippians 4:13.

The verse reads, "I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me."

According to a report in The Blaze, atheists with the Freedom from Religion Foundation are "calling it improper for a politician to promote his religious views using 'the machinery of the state,'" and have written a letter to Walker asking him to delete the message from his official Facebook and Twitter accounts.

The group also reportedly published a statement on its website in which co-president Dan Barker said Walker's Scriptural message "seems more like a threat, or the utterance of a theocratic dictator, than that of a duly elected civil servant."
