The Occam's Razor solution.First, let me just spit out all the words that folks keep putting in my mouth.
I guess you missed the part of my quote where I said it was fine with me if others erected their own symbol, therefore, there would be no favortism shown. Just find a means of doing so without the fuss and lawsuits. Why does every damn issue have to be settled in court? Seek permission to erect your own symbol/recognition of your faith/spirituality or lack thereof. And...if as result of this lawsuit the symbol isn't allowed to be displayed at all, then indeed, one groups rights would thereby be trampled upon.
Too bad they rarely happen when the authorities are involved.
From what I understand they did try to resolve the issue without the lawsuit. They asked to erect some kind of symbol to honor those that died that were atheists and were refused.
They have also stated that they will drop the suit if symbols from all the religions of those that died are included.
Do you have a link of some sort to that? That would be good to know in this thread.
