“Entirely possible. Some libs want the names of some cities in the southwest changed because they say their current names violate separation of church and state.”

That would screw up more than the southwest.

Even in liberal Boston about 40 streets are named after saints.

Boston is a contraction of St. Bartholomew’s Town. And yes, there is a St. Bartholomew street in Boston.
