South African's bickering about American history. Priceless
Well, if the thing is being built by the government, there should not be religious imagery on it.
Also, I can't help but agree with the now much vilified president of American Atheists. All this fuss about some twisted metal, never mind the thousands that died.
But whatever, I really don't care. In the grand scheme of things it's much ado about nothing.
With regards to the sensationalist thread name, I have one response.
"People of Seaford owns Christians." Linky
When you see how silly my title is with regards to the video, then you can see how silly the thread name is.
Dave silverman is that you?![]()
btw calling your self Epicurus makes you more of a joke. oh wait.. that was a quote![]()
Quote marks work like this : [noparse] [/noparse]
Terribly sorry for putting a quote inside quotations.

Wonder what they'd have done if the twisted metal was in the shape of a crescent moon and star?
I just think it's silly. So there's a bit of twisted metal that looks like a cross and some people want to make it a part of the memorial. What's the big deal?
I agree with Stewart: If it bothers you why not just think of it as some T-shaped metal twisted thingy (or whatever it was he said).
It's such a silly thing to wet yourself about.
Edit: Although, I would say, in hindsight, that if you ARE going to have any religious symbols, then you should have all religions represented in some way as a way of paying religious/spiritual tribute to all those of different faiths (including the lack thereof) who died.
But that seems impractical![]()

The thing is, it's a religious symbol, nothing more, to the people who want it as part of the structure.
In any case, the USA is a democracy, so if it goes up, cool. I really don't care.

LolThe atheist could be represented by an empty box.

With or without a cat in it? or both?
They should just build a Scientology centre on the site. With a giant staue of Ron out front.
No not Ron, Emperor whatsit..
