Why can’t we put up a cross in our congress hall wall like how in Quebec, Canada they do putting a cruxifix at their national assembly room? Canada has secular government and so-called separation of church and state like we do and also diverse.

Putting a cross up would be a very good thing actually for many reasons. If Quebec can do it so can we.

Because we have different faiths living on this country. And none of them should ever be put above another. All that is to be determined on a personal level..

It would turn white hot in the presence of some of these Democrats. And they would run from the room screaming.

How would you feel if symbols of other religions were put up in Congress?

Please provide a list of the many good reasons you refer to. Why is it a good thing to install a cross instead of the Star of David? Or any other religious symbol?

What are these good reasons? You’ve obviously thought long and hard about this. Educate us.
