Well, if the can't respect an unborn child's life, I certainly wouldn't expect respect for freedom of speech.

At UT-Austin the other day, there was a giant display cursing the "fools" who use religion as a crutch, calling it the "opiate of the masses". What is the point of a display like that? Supposing for a second it was even true, what would one gain from exerting time and effort to belittle someone else's personal belief? It must make them feel superior, the "opiate of the narcissists".

Yes, it is certainly disgusting, especially considering that this is Holy Week. The thing that needs to be recognized here though is this "sign" is still standing and no one from the "religious right" has committed a crime by tearing it down. The left are insecure, frightened people who resort to unethical, criminal tactics to advance their agenda.
