My point is not that these people don’t have the right to say it, but that government should not be expected to promote one religion bashing another. Might as well let the Klan put up an anti-Catholic display. I’m not in favor of vandalism, but the content of the sign puts it well outside the legitimate role of government.
Promotion would be if they put it up themselves, in this case, it seems they simply offered the space for all to put up displays, thus the variety described.
Atheists have used the argument often that Christmas displays are ‘bashing’ them or are hate in some sort. We should rise above that.
Their display does their side far more harm than good. We should rise above their antics and let the people see them and decide which represents the spirit they would rather be in, a spirit of love or a spirit of hate.
