I am very familiar with that particular case, in Maryland, since I once lived in the area. The cross was not in the middle of the highway originally. The highway was later moved.

No one from FFRF has gone to Rome and destroyed anything. In fact, what property has the FFRF destroyed?

You know quite well what I am saying? Do not use the same trick Petunia used? They would love to remove "In God We Trust" from the coin too. The Atheist Crusades against nativity scenes are well known. These guys have nothing better to do or they are snowflakes. So who cares if they are offended? Grow a pair! It is culture, nothing else.

Why accept a Xmas tree and not a nativity scene?

Who’s Petunia? Are you talking about John Mulaney’s French Bulldog?

<cut>. I am not using any "tricks". You are not worth talking to. A mistake I will not make again.

Petunia: In colloquial terms when one says "you have an agenda" it means a hidden goal. You took the words literally on purpose. That is a debate tactic that sometimes ------actually works. No loss of honor as far as I can tell.

There is a secular side to christmas and a religious side.

But again, you are trying to worm out of the topic of FFRF.

You can't have an honest conversation with a dishonest person.
