A courthouse in Georgia removed a Christian flag from its property after receiving a complaint from a Wisconsin-based atheist organization.

Bryan County Courthouse officials decided to take down a Christian flag from their Superior Courtroom following a complaint leveled by the Freedom From Religion Foundation.

...

In a statement released last Thursday, FFRF co-president Anne Laurie Gaylor said that she and her organization "appreciate that they finally decided to stop playing the role of constitutional outlaws."

"Bryan County is not a Christian county, Georgia is not a Christian state and the United States is a secular —not a Christian — nation. Reason and the Constitution have prevailed," stated Gaylor.

Good on the FFRF. I wonder how the people who supported that flag on display would feel if a Muslim judge put up a star and crescent flag?

1. Some days I despair that we will ever break free of the fears instilled

in Western civilizations by the superstitions propagated by the religious beliefs of the Dark Ages.

2. Another clear victory

Small in scale, but irrevocable. Unlike those religious freedom laws that will get overturned.
