re: #2 Obdicut

I personally think it foolish to rain on the Churches parade so to speak. We all have a right to our religious beliefs, I consider that a core value for us Americans. I expect atheists and other religions to display that little bit of tolerance for each other.

IMO, let the church have it’s display unmolested. Of course it follows that I don’t want an evangelist out there trying to ruin the point of the atheist display. Each in turn, equal unfettered access.

To me an atheist looking at a religious display is not harmed, and vice versa. They may have very different desires or beliefs. But they also have an obligation to let the other have their place and time without public objection. Not as a law, but just as a courtesy to our fellow humans.

The idea an atheist is harmed in any way by a religious display in public is far too akin tpo a straight person seeing a gay person or couple. No harm is done. No foul. So, no need to object.
