“The Christian symbol of a cross positioned near the TAMU-SA seal on a building that is the gateway to a public university raises First Amendment concerns,” said Public Policy and Advocacy Director with the ACLU of Texas, Rebecca Robertson, in a statement. “We are seeking full disclosure about the construction and funding of this structure so we can better understand the circumstances,” she said.

=============================================
Why do these anti-God liberals have so much power!?

I see the ACLUs’ war on Christianity and Christian Americans is going well. Something tells me they are not going to like the G*dless society they will reap once they have destroyed all the Christians here in the USA.

“Take the school seal off, put the cross back on. Done.”

My thoughts, too.

I think if enough of us band together and fight these anti-gooberment idiots like the ACLU why would it be too late? Wonder how many times they’ve been fought in court and lost as opposed to people folding like cheap chairs and doing their bidding with no questions asked? Just wonderin’....:(

And the removal of crosses from the necklaces around our necks.

Obama and Hillary Clinton are quoted as saying they believe in the “freedom of worship”. They never say they believe in the “freedom of religion”. On religious matters, there is no daylight between them. This is the face of the Democratic party.

Marxism marches forward to roam the earth. Those that ignore God’s will today will soon learn that God will have the last word.

The letter says that the cross gives the appearance of government endorsement of Christianity, which is in violation of the Constitution.

Whereas, the reality of the situation is completely different.

Forced removal of the cross from private property gives the appearance of government endorsement of Atheism, which is in violation of the Constitution.

So instead the ACLU promotes paganism on all public properties, violating our 1st Amendment rights.

Just imagine if the ACLU existed in the first 150 or 175 years of our country, they'd be making 100 lawsuits a day for public and even (horros) government approved references to religion. Only they'd lose them all, and be run out of town tarred and feathered, as they deserve. I hate the ACLU with every fibre of my being.

Why do people keep caving in to these Godless, anti-American communists?

“My property, my cross, go away.”

There is no constitutional right to not be offended!

If there were, I’d sue the ACLU for the thousands of times they’ve offended me.

Methinks time for “Occupy Torre de Esperanza”, and go up there and just put ANOTHER BIG CROSS UP THERE. And then sit-in around it, singing Spanish Christmas Carols, waiting for the arrests. These atheists who are out to destroy our Repulic hate and fear The Cross as they do the work of the Dark One. How many of us are willing to stand up for Christ and take our country back, one block at at time?

In other news, the ACLU has demanded that the name of San Antonio, TX be changed to Antonio as San, which is Spanish for Saint is offensive to many because of it’s affiliation with Catholicism. ?S
