Atheist Trys To Stop Michael W. Smith Concert

Those pesky atheists are at it again – this time trying to block a Michael W. Smith concert!

Contemporary Christian music star Michael W Smith has denounced a recent lawsuit threat from a Utah atheist who wants a concert canceled because of possible church-state concerns.

Smith told The Christian Post that he found the lawsuit threat against the Draper City Council “absurd” and the “craziest thing I’ve ever heard.”

“I don’t really have an opinion on the person as I’ve never met him, but I think the idea of a concert being cancelled because [of] one person threatening a lawsuit is absurd,” said Smith.

Smith will be having a concert, titled “Wonder, Worship, and Glory” at the Draper Amphitheater of Draper, Utah, on Tuesday, July 24. It is presented by Warrior Worship Ministries.
