I suppose if we had a primitive tribe of Indians in America trekking up the side of a volcano in a national park to pray to their god, the volcano, you'd have them thrown out and jailed.They fight because they don't want public funds used to support private faiths, or their symbols in this case. Why do you care about a bent piece of steel from a collapsed building? Oh right, because it looks like a Cross, the Symbol of Christianity...Why are atheists so up in arms over a cross? Nobody is forcing religious views on them. I don't believe pro wrestling is real, but I don't go to court to try stopping it. I don't believe in Elvis sightings, but I don't try shouting down those that think Elvis is alive. I don't believe that communion wine literally turns into Christ's blood, but I fully support Catholics first amendment right to believe it does.
I think that atheists that fight against the free exercise clause are terrified that they're wrong, and that's why they're so vocal.
