>>Is a symbol representing the different religions of all those killed, planned to be erected also? If not, why?<<
We demean the incredible emotions those rescue workers endured in that horrific task of combing through the rubble looking for the dead by arguing over the semantics of the symbolism of a cross. Let's keep it simple OK? The fireman found this 'cross' standing straight up among the other pieces of steel. It was HIS response in his heart (because he lives and understands the Power of HIS religion) and it gave him great comfort and hope. Why would you want to deprive those people of finding comfort and hope? Just because you or any non-Christian or atheist do not participate nor understand this spiritual connection, must you deny the millions who do?
Let's just take this issue to the courts OK? Let the athiests file charges on the separation of church and state issue. It will be thrown out. This no where resembles Congress making a law defining a religion for the country. Are you offended to visit the Arlington cemetary?

No where have I said I wanted to take anything away from anyone. I have a very deep spiritual connection with God, and very little offends me.
