... it did not have a cross, religious symbols or even the word "Bible" on it.

The problem is "Book" ---symbol of a cissexual, rigid, hierarchical, heteronormative, patriarchal binary male-oriented linear-thinking retrogressive colonial-settler white supremacy Western imperialist mindset.

Didn't you know?

“What is going on?”

Christianity is now held to be profane, and homosexuality to be sacred.

I’ll contribute to the cloud fund to put them back up and this time there will be no removing them until the event is over.

This is the same California that’s cool by extremely vulgar “pride” parades.

I know you are joking, but why does the left insist that we use whatever label they choose for themselves, but do not call us what we would like to be called? Most people who follow the "Book" preferred to be called "Christians," not cis- whatever.
