The cross has been there for fifty years and crosses have stood at that site for nearly one hundred years. Like I said, let the people decide. I do, however, think no government funds should go the upkeep of the cross.
Josh, I wonder if you would be so opposed to it if you were not an atheist?
While I went to a Methodist church as a child, I am not religious. In fact, I’m much like Carl Sagan. I do not want to believe, I want to know. I call myself agnostic but am probably closer to being an atheist. I will not go so far as to say that I know there is no God because I do not think that there is any proof that he does not exist. We do not have all the answers.
Live and let live. Leave the cross alone.
