Because the tree is NOT a religious symbol. Its just a tree.Lol I voted for Trump.http://www.indystar.com/story/news/...n-removes-cross-town-christmas-tree/95347796/
VICTORY! How many times we have to go over this. GOVERNMENT in any form may NOT endorse a religion including putting up a religious symbol.
Keep going for victories like this, and you will keep losing at the ballot box.
Lol no its not.Nothing hateful about following the law and not wanting others religion jammed down our throats. I don't push my religion on anyone I expect the samechristian cross on a christmas tree the TOWN that ALL residents pay taxes to. Yep endorsement of religion but government entity.
Very sad that some people are so hateful. I'll say a prayer for you. Bye.
Indeed but this has nothing to do with history or tradition. MANY of our founders were non believers or agnostics. They specifically stated in 1st amendment that no government endorsed religion.There are many who hate this country's history and traditions.
Well this is enforced atheism, so someone's religion IS being forced on everyone else.
Nope. Because the Tree is 1. Bought by the city 2. On CITY property which means its STILL something taxpayers pay for. People want a cross then put it on THEIR trees in their homes and put them in your businesses windows etc.Traditions are wonderful......(some of them)....but why should government (our taxes) pay for religious ones?There are many who hate this country's history and traditions.
So if the people of the town paid for the cross, and then put it up there on their own, you would be OK with it?
Then why is the tree acceptable to you and supposed defenders of the "wall"
