I'm pinging you guys to this article b/c, IIRC, there was an effort by the city of Charlotte to "relocate" the reknowned Elmwood cemetery in order to make way for a rail line or something.

I would guess this ruling leaves nothing sacred - not even a resting place for the deceased.

Your thoughts?

Sure. The secular liberal church has been "seizing" owned properties via promotion of "secularism within the church" since the 1950s. In the business world, we'd call it "hostile takeovers". Hard enough to actually build "traditional churches" in blue zones, from what I've learned. Somehow the environmentalist or zoning laws prevent it. Heard about a church trying to be built with private funds, land was owned, but stalled through "citizen activist groups". The secularists in the area demanded the rights to use the church's property any time they felt like it. Ergo, this article posting seems to me, merely the next planed step by the "one worlders". Likely, probable? Yes. Church properties are in many cases, beautiful, beautiful lands.

Grave yards have frequently been moved for road and rail projects.
