  • If the churches want the right to express their religious beliefs, they have to be willing for other beliefs to be expressed as well when it is on public land. I betcha anything they weren't standing up for the atheist when people were in an uproar.

  • Nothing that has ever happened on public property or government property has ever stopped me from celebrating and decorating on my own property. Why do others find this hard to do?

  • I think if the Nativity scene was allowed for 60 years then it was obviously okay with the locals. I believe in the freedom of religious expression, that being said, I would've been fine with the atheist doing his non-religious scene. I must say, I don't understand why something Atheists don't believe in is so offensive, annoying, or whatever sentiment was behind the putting up the non-religious scene.

  • Oy Vey! Of all the ....I can't even finish the thought. (Well I can, but I won't) It's not even here yet and I am already sick of christmas. Can we please have thanksgiving first ? Christmas gets pushed in our faces earlier and earlier every year. Why do some atheists have to nitpick every little thing? Especially since it's been a tradition for the last 60 years. Why do they choose to be drama hounds now? I hope the law suit gets thrown out. I also hope they can reach some kind of compromise such as allowing both displays in different areas of the park.

  • I don't care really but I will play Devil's advocate. Could someone say they have the right, in a public park, to express their religious beliefs? That anyone should be able to do that in a public space?

  • I am curious about what the Atheists scene was?
