    I demand that legislation be passed immediately allowing for the shooting on sight of any and all athiests, since their very existance offends me.
    Is anyone shocked by this statement? Is there any difference between this demand and the demand by a single athiest calling for the usurping of the rights of thousands of people in cities and towns throughout the land? When are the people of this country going to extract head from ass and get back to living the life that the Founders gave them at the cost of their blood and tears?
    This whole bowing and kowtowing to one or a handful of athiests every time I turn around makes me SICK!!!!!!!!!!

      I agree totally. People should let the dingbat sue but keep the cross up. If I were the townspeople I would leave it up permanently. Look what Madelyn Murray O'Hair started, one woman took prayer from schools. I don't know what has happened to the American people, and it seems everyone "caves." Taking away the cross is infringing on the rights of the people to put it up, yet a court would rule for the rights of one stupid woman. If I lived in that town she would wake up to crosses in her yard. I want our America back, and I want the same rights the courts give to the athiests, Muslims and border hoppers.

      I would have to agree with you. I will admit I'm an athiest, but I'm no cry baby. I also don't appreciate people forcing their religion on me, therefore, I will not force my lack of religion on them! People of religious believes need to tell the athiests to look the other direction if a cross is so offensive to them and NOT bow down to their cry baby ways.

          You are one of a few and I commend you. We do not expect to force our beliefs on you and you do not want to force your lack of belief on us. That's the way the world should be. To each his own. I will privately add a "bless you." if you don't mind.

            As a Christian, I can tell you that if we were to get into a civil discussion about religion, and you wanted to tell me why you don't believe in God and His Son, I would tell you why I do believe. That is not "forcing" my beliefs on you or anyone else! That is merely a discussion of beliefs. This is what most atheists and many liberals do not understand.
            Muslims believe that they have to force others to believe as they do....or they will die a horrible death at the hands of the muslims. This is an example of "forcing" beliefs.
            Christians do not do that. We believe in letting you know about God and Jesus, but only if you want to hear it. Putting up a cross or other symbols of our belief is no more offensive than rain is to a flower.
            Thank you for your honesty. I think a discussion would be interesting with you!

              Yes Henry, remember Madelyn Murray O'Hare - and remember what finally happened to her. All the athesits should have the same thing happen to them. And no clue as to who was to blame.

                Now this makes you sound just like the Atheists you are so against. You can't demand or hope for the death of anyone just because you disagree with them. The only reason they have power is because the Politicians are so scared of a law suit and/or trying to be "Politically Correct" they are willing to cave in. So don't wish for death on them, better yet stand up for your rights as a Religious person and say enough. The towns people need to recall this Mayor and put up the Cross and tell this ONE person to sit down and shut up. If he don't like it then he can always find another town to live in period. Again just my opinion but to wish death on even those that do not say a word about this, and there are a lot of Atheists that don't care if you put up crosses or Christmas decorations and they just go about their business. Those like this fool wants to start trouble and that is all this one is doing. And yet he has won this battle because the Mayor has no backbone.

                  "Who will go and who will I send." The parable of the 10 virgins indicated that 5 were wise and had resources prepared to LAST THROUGH THE NIGHT. If you will, the leaders of this town are the 5 foolish virgins who did not have the fortitude to stand up to the evil that they faced. Now look to see if there are even a few in this town of 19,000 plus who will do any better. 
                  We have been conditioned to NOT OFFEND and not make anyone uncomfortable. So now, the Christians are indistinguishable from the heathen. That may be because they are NO DIFFERENT.

                  "The wicked plotteth against the just, and gnasheth upon him with his teeth. The Lord shall laugh at him:for he seeth that his day is coming. The wicked have drawn out the sword, and have bent their bow, to cast down the poor and needy, and to slay such as be of upright conversation. Their sword shall enter into their own heart, and their bows shall be broken." Psalm 37:12-15. Let your heart not be troubled with anger..they will get "theirs." IT IS WRITTEN!

                      Consider that you, yes YOU, might be able to bring that person to Christ, if you go with God's leading and love in your heart for their soul. Remember that the "whosoever" included just about everybody. In fact, I don't know of a SINGLE person who does not fit in it. Love your enemies. Just don't give in to them. Stand up for what is right. Just as with the homo/sexuals, don't hate them. Just don't let them force their sin of us and the world. They could still repent and be saved. Nothing is IMPOSSIBLE with God.

                    I know you are angry. But the fact remains that we are supposed to love our enemies. That does not mean that we are to give in to them. What has happened is the very worst thing that could have happened. The town leaders were thinking with their pocketbooks and not with their leadership of the town. We should fight with everything we have. And if a judge rules against us, we should organize to vote him out, or impeach him. But the person, although working for the deceiver, is still capable of repenting and turning to God. So love them. Pray for them. Be kind to them. Just don't let them get away with forcing their way on everyone else. PTL

                          "If My people, who are called by MY Name, will humble themselves and pray and seek My face, then I will hear from Heaven and heal the land." 
                          If I understand that verse, it means that ALL of the problems of our NATION are occurring because those people who CLAIM to belong to God and Jesus Christ, have turned from serving Him and are full of wickedness. For this nation to be saved, the people in the churches need to abandon their materialistic, selfish, focus on themselves and bow before God in repentance.
                          The last great revival was started by 3 people who were praying together in a small church in New Hebrides. A young pastor, an 80 year old woman and a blind woman of 65 years. When God finally answered, the blind woman spoke up and said, "I SEE the church, full of young people." 
                          This battle is not between people. It is about principalities and powers. And in ALL of the strength and power of humanity, we will fail to win. If you have ANY hope, it MUST be in Jesus Christ.

                            I agree. Let's see you try to gather a group of people, let's say 10, who will get excited about the atheist activities in YOUR OWN TOWN. Go to your own church. Recruit as hard as you can.
                            These are the people who LIVE in stony, shallow ground. Their commitment to Jesus Christ is choked out because they have NO real determination to PUT Jesus Christ FIRST in their lives.
                            We truly live in the time of the 7th church of REvelation. We are in Laodicea. And God says He will "VOMIT" us out of His mouth.
                            God have mercy on us.

                              WASN'T IT that freak-atheist, Madalyn Murry O'Hair, that was the prime cause for God being removed from our schools? ~ God took good "care" of her for doing that most evil deed!
                              Had we God-fearing "judges" on our federal courts, they NEVER would have ruled in her favor, thus SHE was only ONE of MANY evil people that dwell among us, along with those that hold high positions within government!

Frankly I think this Mayor should be recalled and fired as soon as possible and the Cross be put up if that is what the majority of the town wants. Why should one person be allowed to push HIS/HER will on the Majority? WOW! Enough is enough people and if you don't recall this Mayor then you deserve everything you get. Stand up and demand this be undone and the Cross you always put up this time of the year go up and that one person be told to sit down and shut the hell up. Just my opinion folks but enough.

                                        Nothing will appease the terrorists or atheists- they'll just find another issue to complain about. There are more believers than A s so WHY BOTHER? They should be told to either close their eyes and mouth or leave town. What about how offended the Christians feel to be denied the sight of their cross?

                                          The intolerance of atheists is despicable!!! They are just like too many of our enemies, everything has to be their way and because of our stupid political correctness, they always seem to win. When are we going to get some people in the powerful positions that will stand up to them? I am offended when they use their lack of religion and tolerance to exploit themselves. They go out of their way to spread their intolerance and to bring to the surface their hate. If they had a backbone, they would just walk past the items that they say offend them or don't look at them but instead they have to spread their hate and intolerance. They take the separation of church and state too far. I am extremely offended by them.

This town is beyond ignorant to comply with a bunch of angry, bitter atheists. I'd tell them to bring it on and fight them...call Jay Sekulow or other legal organizations that will fight for freedom of religion. To just acquiesce is cowardly and ignorant. God will hold them accountable.

                                                  Keith now you are exactly right. The only separation of Church and State was to say that the Government can not set one religion as a National Religion period. All this BS about it today is made up crap and people refuse to see it as it is total BS. Thank You for saying it like it is.

                                                  Apparently atheists have never read the First Amendment.
                                                  "Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or 
                                                  prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of 
                                                  speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to 
                                                  assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances."
                                                  Putting a cross somewhere has nothing to do with Congress establishing (or forcing) a religion for the Nation to follow. But the atheists ARE prohibiting the free exercise thereof.; which the First Amendment does not allow. Therefore the atheists are in violation of the First Amendment.
                                                  The First Amendment was created by those who escaped Rome/Europe's forced religion and provided ALL of us with Freedom to worship according to our conscious. It does not allow for a few persons to prevent people from worshiping according to their beliefs. This has to stop.

                                                    What is happening to all the leaders of our towns. The Christains have more of a right than any body that is an athiest . If they want to have things thier way, send them to a country that "thinks" the way they do. In the meantime, sue them for not letting you do what you want to do.

First they tell GOD that they don't want him in our schools, then they don't want him mentioned in our government or in public. Well they can move their sorry butts to N. Korea, China or someplace more appealing to them. JUST get the heck out of the USA. We need to say multiple prayers to our Lord for his forgiveness and then change our ways dramatically.

                                                            Athiest believe in GOD far more than the average person. The believe so intently that all references and symbols and public display must be removed. They BELIEVE in HIM. They are surrounded by HIM. An Athiest only enforces the existance of the Holy Saviour. Because who would fight something that didnt exist. Unless your mentally insane. Thank you athiests everywhere for your support and solidarity ensuring that GOD stays in the mind of all present. 
                                                            Athiests have to believe first in order to denounce on any level. They should start a chuch. They are holding up their end. GOD BLESS you all.

                                                                  The lawsuits are based upon the government or NGO putting up the symbol of a single religion (respecting an establishment blah blah blah). Even though it's nonsense, remember Saul Alinsky's Rule #9 from Rules for Radicals: "The threat is usually more terrifying than the thing itself." This is remarkably easy to counter. Simply plant a little menorah next to the Nativity scene and their lawsuits go right where the sun don't shine. Fight fire with fire. After they leave in disgust, remove the menorah, or leave it up as a reminder that they are not as smart as we are. Merry Christmas, all.

Best to take them to task at their own game. The battle against school choice is joined by the atheists because parochial schools will get some of the money. The 1st amendment (which never hinted at separation of church and state) implies that gov't should be apathetic towards any specific religion. If a parochial school costs less per student and does a far better job ... then NOT allowing gov't to save money and get better results for parents willing to send their children to those schools is anti-pathetic, not apathetic. These uber-intellectual atheists are working to keep our populace public-school educated (aka clueless). Then the indoctrinated can be more easily led into atheism and many other baseless faiths (atheism a faith with no reasonable explanation for creation). So atheists join the unions and gov't in conspiring to hold power and keep the population indoctrinated and dumbed down ... which is the opposite of what atheists claim to be doing. Hey, do I smell a law-suit ??? I would if I thought like an atheist.

Kind'a like UPS received a petition signed by 88,000 people saying they would boycott them . REASON: UPS donates close to $100,000 per year to the Boy Scouts of America.......AND......... the Boy Scouts "discriminate" against Homosexuals. So if you do the math, this is .00275% of the population of the US. Time to support the Post Office and Fed-Ex.
