With Americans now kneeling before the throne of the homosexuals, the atheists are ready to take their turn at being obnoxious, pains in the @$$.

I see the devout evangelical atheists are out proseletyzing again.

No one opposes these Atheist/left-wing groups directly, openly. I find they make demands easily, and without any worry about consequences.
Conservatives are “live and let live” types, and generally don’t have the personality types to be in-your-face, aggressive, lefty-style activists. Unfortunately though, that is exactly what is needed in cases like this. Not letter-writing campaigns, but public, annoying, non-stop demonstrations and blockades, for example, of “Freedom from Religion” HQ.
Let them feel the same pressure they give, and they won’t be see free and easy in their demands.

Freedom From Religion Foundation in Madison, Wisconsin has every right to say what they think AND so do the Religious....the media loves this sort of 'war' and will try to exacerbate it...who is funding the FFRF...some socialist-Marxist group no doubt...if America is to keep her roots, people are going to have to demand these types of organizations be tarred and feathered and run out of Dodge.

Here in SC we have In God We Trust license plates. The atheists fought against those and lost. For the life of me, I cannot understand why atheists care if people believe in God.

I never see them doing anything against islam, though. Strange.
Statements about a god have no place in government buildings.

It is no exaggeration to say that on Sundays in Washington during the administrations of Thomas Jefferson (1801-1809) and of James Madison (1809-1817) the state became the church. Within a year of his inauguration, Jefferson began attending church services in the House of Representatives. Madison followed Jefferson's example, although unlike Jefferson, who rode on horseback to church in the Capitol, Madison came in a coach and four. Worship services in the House--a practice that continued until after the Civil War--were acceptable to Jefferson because they were nondiscriminatory and voluntary. Preachers of every Protestant denomination appeared. (Catholic priests began officiating in 1826.) As early as January 1806 a female evangelist, Dorothy Ripley, delivered a camp meeting-style exhortation in the House to Jefferson, Vice President Aaron Burr, and a "crowded audience." Throughout his administration Jefferson permitted church services in executive branch buildings. The Gospel was also preached in the Supreme Court chambers.

These people are going after a ten commandments statue that is in front of a local school. There was an offer to move the statue to private property nearby, but that's not good enough because individuals walking to school could still see it.

This just disproves their whole “I don’t believe there is a god” schtick.
If you truly were indifferent to God, you wouldn’t care.
This demonstrates quite clearly you are fully aware of God’s presence in your life, at all times, and you are looking for safe haven to get him out of your life.
Your concsience is being scratched at everday and God is working in your life.

Atheists should be a little more patient. Why worry about changing a few things here on earth when their godless eternity is just beyond the few short years here on the topside of the terra ferma.

I think Alamogordo followed Artesia’s lead on this and years ago the ACLU tried to tell Tijeras to remove the cross on their logo....citizens told them to get out of town. NM does fight back sometimes.
