The article ''My mother: the most hated woman in America: Interview with [[William J. Murray]]'' declares:
{{Cquote|In 1979, William had an idea to help get rid of his mother’s reputation as the most hated woman in America.
He told her of a hospital which desperately needed new equipment. He suggested she buy the equipment and put a plaque on it saying, ‘A gift from Madalyn Murray O’Hair—atheist.’
‘I told her we’d call a news conference and get the story publicized all over the United States. Then people would say she’s not such a bad old gal after all.’
She fumed. ‘She said, “Why would I want to take perfectly good money and use it to buy hospital equipment? I could use that money to file lawsuits to bar pastors, priests and rabbis from being allowed to go into hospitals.”’<ref>[https://creation.com/my-mother-the-most-hated-woman-in-america My mother: the most hated woman in America: Interview with William J. Murray] by Robert Doolan</ref>}}
Taylor Barkley in his article ''An Atheist’s Perspective on Christian Engagement in the World'' wrote:
{{Cquote|A Christian believes that a hospital and a church should be built. A Christian believes that deeds must be done and prayers said. A Christian strives for involvement in life and has nothing to fear in death. He wants disease conquered, poverty vanished, and war eliminated and works with Christ to accomplish those goals, knowing that they will be accomplished one day.<ref>[https://tifwe.org/an-atheists-perspective-on-christian-engagement-in-the-world/ An Atheist’s Perspective on Christian Engagement in the World] by Taylor Barkley</ref>}}
