"I hope you go to Hell you filthy Atheist."

That message among dozens of others awaited 21-year-old college student Amanda Scott, a member of the Mobile Atheist Community after speaking publicly against the proposed "In God We Trust" display at Mobile's Government Plaza.

Scott has spoken before the Mobile County Commission twice, once at the June 19 meeting where the display was approved and again on August 7 when she and several others proposed their own displays.

Each time, she was interviewed by the media, which in turn posted stories in their respective venues and social media.

Here are just a few of the messages that were directed at Scott on Facebook via comment threads or even to her personal inbox, provided to AL.com. AL.com also verified each comment and chose to withhold the names of the people who wrote them.

"Shoot her for treason."

"Go jump off a bridge."

"I believe in God. 'In God We Trust' should not be an issue. I bet that if she was [sic] fixing to be raped or murdered she would be asking God to save her."

"Get a rope."

"I think this lady is just trying to get some attention, because no guy wants to go out with her."

"Saw her on the news, she's just mad because one of the seven deadly sins is gluttony."

"If you don't believe in God, how can God or the word God offend you? I wish people like this would walk into traffic."

"What's her motto, in McDonalds we trust?"

"She can take a flying leap off Canal Bridge."

"Dump her off at the Iraq border, tell her she's home hit the road."

"Whatever happened to stoning people in the city square?"

"What do I think? I think she will burn in Hell when her time comes."

Scott said that she was disappointed to receive the hate mail.

"I tried to be respectful in my testimony and my interview, but I was met with hateful comments and messages from members of the local community attacking my personal character and even my physical appearance.

As for if she feels dissuaded, she said no.

"I will not allow the hatred to discourage me from continuing to defend the constitutional principle of the separation of church and state and the civil rights of atheists here in the city of Mobile and the state of Alabama," she said.
