Any ideas on how to get "wall art" bible verses taken down in a small office?

[Rev. Rye]

I write software for a small office that has about 15 people. Today, I noticed that one of the managing partners had placed bible verses as "wall art" in the common waiting area.

I ignored it when I saw a bible on his bookshelf in his office.
I ignored it when I saw Jesus pictures in his office.
I ignored it when I saw his screensaver had been changed to rotate religious motivational pictures.
I ignored it when both he and his wife added Biblical quotes to their email signatures.

I believe they have crossed the line by putting two large "wall art" bible quotes in the common waiting area.

The secretary and I are the only two atheists in the office and it is probably worse for her since these things are in her workspace all day, but I would like to know if there are any good ideas to get them taken down.

I don't want to start a legal battle (5 of the top guys here are excellent lawyers -- and they're all deeply religious), I can't afford to lose my job and I'm afraid I will just by telling these religious attorneys that I'm an atheist and I'm uncomfortable with the biblical stuff everywhere. Anonymous letter maybe? I doubt that would do anything -- they would ask the person to come forward and when I did, I'd surely be fired for some nit-picky thing. Can anyone help me think this through? Any success stories?

First, I would suggest that you bring this up with that guy and tell them kindly how you feel about it. Maybe if he doesn't see the problem, I suggest Thor's method of retaliation by putting books about atheism on the bookshelf, pictures of atheistic thinkers on the walls, and quotes from them in the common areas and your emails (maybe "threatening" to do so to his face might change his mind). Or better yet, if there's anybody who is into a non-Christian religion (maybe a Muslim or Jew, possibly a Buddhist if you can get him to take sides in a rivalry like this), have him do the same thing. What experience I have tells me that if that guy has two brain cells to rub together, he will realise that some people are just not going to be receptive to preaching. In any case, it's best if you keep passive, and if you do confront him, try to be as non-confrontational as possible.

By the way, what are the verses he wants to post?
