14. ATA Local 22 Button Design Contest
Information and Rules
Background
While many people in the world do not ascribe to any religion (they may be
secular, agnostic, or atheist), many people do identify with some form of
organized belief system. Some of the largest and most internationally
widespread belief systems include Hinduism, Christianity, Islam, Judaism, and
Buddhism.
Regardless of what belief system one may hold (if any), everyone deserves to
be treated respectfully; no one person (or religion) is better than any other,
and sometimes our differences should be celebrated as we learn from each
other!
Examples of buttons that promote the acceptance of religious diversity
