(11,735 posts)Are you trying to tell me you cannot discern the difference between a needless lawsuit removing a cross honoring Americans that was once on private property and is now on public lands and has been around for say 80 years, and a genuine concern about an endorsement of religion by the state.
Reasonable people see the difference. Ideologues, whether they be religious whack jobs like Fred Phelps or strident Atheist don't.
Also on what planet is the US government promoting Christian religion at every opportunity? That you actually believe this is concerning.
According to you the long history of Christian thought and symbols in the USA is of no consequence and all should adopt a purist view that any and all references, themes, memes, should be thoroughly purged from the public square.
So in when do we fix the US supreme court building and the Washington monument. I read they are fixing the Washington monument soon, perhaps you can get them to erase any and all religious items.
