Atheists Force Woman to Remove Cross Honoring Dead Son

There has been so much news lately of schools, organizations, and individuals being harassed by atheist groups, but this one sets a new low. In this case, a grieving mother erected a roadside cross where her son was killed, and now an atheist group has forced her to take it down. What is wrong with these people???

As reported by The Press Enterprise, a roadside cross was erected for 19-year-old Anthony Vincent Devaney who in May 2012 was killed crossing a street.

I think they’re communists. The communists didn’t think they could take over the country as long as we are religious.

Besides, what happened to “freedom OF religion”?????

They always forget the “Or Prohibit the Free Exercise thereof” part.

What dogs in mangers they are.

Well they’re kind of right about reminders of faith. They might actually encourage someone to resist what an atheist is urging.

If I was her I'd just keep replacing it every time it was removed.And when the cops eventually came to take me away I'd make sure there were cameras galore to record the event.

What is it they believe in? Nothing? What kind of symbol would befit that? A blank piece of paper?

They're trying to shape that right here, right now. What are you going to do about it?

Well they do have a country of their own, in the biblical sense. We call it hell.

Well, God might be waiting for us to make good on our beliefs about Him.

You know, ask Him for all manner of great things? To honor His name?
