Members of the Freedom From Religion Foundation need to leave our country!
OZARK, Mo. (AP) — The southwest Missouri city of Ozark is taking down a Christian cross that is part of its holiday display after a national advocacy group complained about it.
Ozark officials said in a news release Tuesday that the Freedom From Religion Foundation said the cross in the Finley River Park holiday display violates the principle of separation of church and state.
In a news release Tuesday, Ozark officials said leaving a religious symbol on public property will result in a lawsuit that the city couldn't win. The city cited cases around the U.S. where public entities have lost similar cases.
The Springfield News-Leader reports the Freedom From Religion Foundation, which is based in Madison, Wisconsin, said if filed the complaint after being contacted by an Ozark citizen.

KMOV4, out of St. Louis, filed the above story. My response is that this group is racist, non-tolerant and extremist in their collective desire to change the religious landscape of America. (I would have no objection if some other 'group' were to help them exit the US, permanently).
Perhaps they could be relocated into an Islamic country of their choice. I understand that Muslim's are also not very tolerant when it come to religious beliefs. The bottom line is that individuals who are not tolerant of other people's beliefs have no place living here. Period. God bless America and may He take pity on these minions of Satan.
Down in Branson MO, well, we have a much bigger one..... The FFRF should be renamed BARF.

The fight over Mount Soledad Veterans Memorial and its cross!
For decades, there has been a First Amendment battle raging over the Mount
Soledad Veterans Memorial in La Jolla,
Calif., where a large cross
anchors a tribute to Korean War veterans.
Because it sits on public property, the American Civil Liberties Union has long argued that the cross amounts to an unconstitutional entanglement of government and religion.
In 2011, the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals agreed, triggering an appeal to the U.S. Supreme Court, but in June, the high court justices declined to hear the case.

My take: Personally, I don’t understand the concept of the ‘separation
of church and state’. Ever since this country was founded it's been all about
God. Period.
