It’s just two pieces of metal. I don’t understand the religious treatment it’s getting.

Many Christians saw it as a sign of hope. It’s OK if you don’t and the cross isn’t going to be displayed with big signs urging people to “come to Jesus”. But it has cultural significance directly related to 9/11 and that warrants its inclusion in the museum about 9/11. The use of government funds to display a object of clear cultural and religious significance in a museum is not an establishment of religion.
