To the editor:
In regard to the Freedom From Religion group that wants the cross removed from North Kingshighway: This group claims to be atheistic, even though its members won't be a few seconds after they die. It seems quite strange why there are so concerned about fighting someone they are so eager to say doesn't exist. If they really believe what they try to make people think they believe, why not just let us Christians, whom they feel are ignorant, go ahead and display all the Christian symbols we want to display? Wouldn't that tend to make us look more stupid?
These people might not realize they are being used as a tool of Satan to fight against God, but they can rest assured they are fighting a losing battle and some day will bow before him and confess that he is Lord. If they wait until then, it will be too late.
Atheists use the statement that the Constitution says there should be separation of church and state. As far as I have been able to ascertain, the First Amendment nor any other part of the Constitution has any such rule.
