A nativity scene on the courthouse lawn in Athens, Texas has offended an atheist and therefore the Wisconsin-based group, the Freedom from Religion Foundation, has stepped in. The anonymous resident complained to the group. She felt intimidated, excluded, and unwelcome at the courthouse.
In a news story the resident wished to remain anonymous because she feared reprisal. More precisely, if I remember correctly, she feared having rocks thrown at her and being harassed. Really?
If Christian symbolism means nothing to her then why in the world does it offend her so much? A nativity scene represents 2,000 years of history and tradition. Christmas is a Christan holiday. Go take down your Christmas tree, don't buy Christmas presents and leave the rest of the 90% of us Americans alone.

I have no doubt in my mind the United States government has a number of unadulterated socialists and communists within its ranks. They are both elected and unelected, thanks to President Obama's unprecedented czar appointments.

I honestly think President Obama is in the tank for Hamas, and is in agreement with the anti-Jewish community. He has done nothing in Israel's favor, but plenty to kiss up to Israel's enemies.

We are going down the socialist path and I fear the problem (the threat) is much greater, even larger than our President. The world government proponents have infiltrated our top level leadership.

The bible says you will know a tree by its fruit. Just look at the WBC website. What’s the message? Love? Warmth? Joy? Nope. A hate group is what I see.
