Former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani, along with about 200 emergency workers and families of victims who died in the attack, joined Jordan for a blessing ceremony before the cross was moved.

I can see maybe not traveling from Texas to this, several blocks in your own city?

Are you counting on Obama to see to it that the cross gets its rightful respect and display? He might just do that; the day after hell freezes over!

BHO hates American flags so much that he has had all of them REMOVED from behind his desk in the Oval Office. So what do you think a raghead like him thinks about the Cross of Christ?

...it will become part of the museum because of its history at ground zero, not because of its Christian symbolism, museum officials said.

God forbid!

Whoops! Did I say the "G" word???"

"I saw Calvary in the midst of all the wreckage, the disaster," Frank Silecchia recalled Saturday. "It was a sign ... that God didn't desert us."

But it's not a religious symbol....... O Vey!

There's a wonderful poetry to that quote.

Thank you very much.
Wow. Did they find that cross just like that? So perfect- or did they rearrange it?

2 out of 3 ain't bad. Now, to make DoD and Congress Shari'a compliant. Conquest? Nah. Right?

Sounds to me like they are going to fabricate Stars of David and crescent moons and place them in the same exhibit as this cross. They will pretend that all these so called artifacts were miraculously found in the wreckage as was this cross. The story will be that each non-religious, but historic, icon was preserved through the intervention of some unnamed, universal religion, generic god. They will assert that these fake and the real icons all have the same historical validity.

Here's a good description of how it all came about.

The Cross at Ground Zero

The photographers at www.thechurchreport.com or Christy media are anti christian types. How do I know? That is the sloppiest/sorriest photograph of a cross that I have ever seen. I will bet you a steak dinner that the editor of this article is a democrat.

Tnx for the link. You’ve given me an idea....whoever’s behind this burial of the Cross does not know much about history. Or, of resurrection.

I am not very religious, but I have stopped by the cross and have been in awe of its significance. I think of the people I knew that were in the building. One was a broker on the American Exchange who was part of a monthly dining club we had. Another was a Port Authrity cop that I went to school with for 9 years.

Wow. Thanks. That’s amazing.
I had heard something about the cross, but I didn’t know all this- that it looked like this!
