Bill Murray is the surviving son of famed atheist Madalyn Murray O’Hare. A book written about his mother is titled The Most Hated Woman in America. (Hating is not recommended, but that is the title of the book.) Her lawsuit went all the way to the United Supreme Court to get prayer in United States public schools declared illegal.
Madalyn, her other son (Bill’s brother), and Bill’s daughter were all murdered together in the 1990’s.
A bitter and profane woman, she founded the American Atheist Society. This is one clear case of the wisdom of rebelling against the attempted dominance of one’s mother. Bill Murray became a devout follower of Jesus Christ, and his mother immediately disowned him. A book he wrote about himself is titled: My Life Without God. He is Chairman of the “Religious Freedom Coalition” (www.religiousfreedomcoalition.org).
The story of Bill Murray, his mother, his brother, and his adult daughter have been shown several times on the television show, Forensic Files.
Now hear Bill Murray – in his own words – speak of his mother and his ministry of giving practical assistance to refugees in the Middle East – in Jesus Name! It includes such services as each three months delivering 180.000 diapers to Christian families and others for their infant children … plus many other good aspects of doing good and pleasing God. (“For We are God’s workmanship, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do.”
(Ephesians 2:8-10)
