For the same reason we yellow-bellied sap suckers are forced by law to support your ruby-throated hummingbird beliefs. Why pay for land that supports only athiests when we're not athiests? Because you make us! Is that "freedom"?
No. You pay, we pay. We should BOTH be able to use it. We'll keep the Moore courthouse, you can have the one in Hillarys neighborhood.
Which of my religious beliefs are you forced to support with your tax dollars? If you're receiving invoices for the tax bill for the church next door, you're either paying them willingly or somebody's handing you a line.

Is there "free land" out there that you don't have to pay for? Last time I checked, you had to go through a realtor to purchase land, and it isn't "free."

But, what happens if I'm forced to conduct business in the Moore courthouse? My tax dollars help pay for it as well. Why should it be incumbent upon me to worry about whether all the judges and officials also worship sapsuckers and therefore might not give me an even break.
The Founding Fathers were wise enough to try to keep personal religious beliefs out of official public life. And, this thread is a great example as to why.
