53. I was wrong on that last statement, their 1984 ruling shows the creche as a symbol
Edited on Wed Dec-10-08 04:56 PM by MiltonF
that can stand by itself as long as the forum is open to other symbols. The sign that was put up was not a symbol but a statement, unless you are willing to say having a sign next to the creche that reads "Christ is the Lord God" is also a symbol.

I am not saying that the Atheists should be stifled I am saying that the forum has to be equal, since you cannot put up a sign that says "Christ is the Lord God' then you most certainly cannot put up a sign that says "Religion is but myth and superstition that hardens hearts and enslaves minds.”
