So a statue is made of a soldier who died defending our country and an atheist group wants it taken down because there's a cross on it? How is that offensive? Do atheists hate the sight of a cross? Are they vampires now? Why should every religious symbol be removed for one group? How does that statue have anything to do with them? What if the soldier was a christian? Doesn't he have the right to display his belief's proudly? Atheists act like they are open minded but are so much more critical and offensive towards other religions then any other religious group i've come across.
This just proves my point. This is such a horrible misunderstanding of the christian religion and offensive to me despite it just being a joke.
Hey i know, i'll be like an atheist and petition for that quote to be removed from this forum.
Freedom of speech and the right to practice and celebrate one's religion go both ways.
Do i think Christianity should be treated like the standard religion that all must follow? No
Do i think that Christianity should only be taught in school's and not other religion's? No
Do i think that all religious symbols, practices and beliefs should be removed from school's and otherwise because it could offend someone who doesn't believe in it despite the fact that other's do? No

I agree with ya
I normally don't get into discussions concerning religion or politics....they usually all go bad. Some people believe it's their way or no way....I ain't one of em....I say whatever floats your boat...if you want to believe in God, Buddha, Mohammad , A giant Glowing Beer Bottle....as long as you respect others and their beliefs.....it's all good....we're just all humans .....being
