There's a point raised in the Breitbart article that adds an interesting wrinkle to this issue. Apparently Justice Scalia came down on the "liberal" side of a similar case before the Supreme Court.
I tend to agree with his rationale on this. A government building is no place for a religious exhibit in this country. It's perfectly acceptable for private organizations to sponsor religious exhibits in public spaces, on the other hand.

That would be a change of the Founder's intent and a violation of
Separation of Church and State. To stop communities from religious freedom would require a Constitutional Amendment and I just don't think there are enough religion haters to make that happen.
Besides which, the examples of mandated State atheism we have seen are not examples of freedom but Marxist slavery.
