High Court Intervenes In Fight Over 29-Foot Cross In San Diego
Topics: Political News and commentaries
At least for now...
The Supreme Court intervened Monday to stop, at least for now, the removal of a large cross from city property in southern California. The cross, which has been in place for decades, was contested by Philip Paulson, a Vietnam veteran and atheist.
Paulson and his attorney James McElroy's offensive against the cross reveals that their motivation has nothing whatsoever to do with their claimed purpose, which is allegedly to maintain "neutrality" between government and religion. Rather, their hate-speech manifests their overt hostility toward religion and their desire to intimidate the opposition into submission.
For sixteen years atheist Philip Paulson claiming he wants to maintain neutrality between government and religion, has been waging an unrelenting war against the Mt. Soledad Cross that is the centerpiece of the historic Veterans Memorial in San Diego. However, Paulson's comments on the website of the Atheist Coalition of San Diego reveals his true motivation is hatred for Christianity.By now it should be crystal clear to all but the dullest of minds that Paulson and McElroy are attempting to use the courts to advance their anti-religion - and especially anti-Christian, agenda, which is strictly forbidden by the Constitution.Paulson goes so far as to state; "We need to attack Jesus..." Those comments, followed by vulgar remarks about Christ, God and the Virgin Mary are so crude and offensive that the Thomas More Law Center will not repeat them. However, Richard Thompson, President of the Law Center commented, "These remarks show the plaintiff to be nothing more than a foul-mouthed anti-Christian whose agenda is not to defend the Constitution, but to attack Christianity."
[Note: It was on May 3, 2005 that Paulson bared his teeth in comments -- since removed -- on the San Diego Atheist Coalition website, in which he said that "We need to attack Jesus..." and followed with several off-color remarks about God and the Virgin Mary.]
Atheists and secularists are part of a network of organizations that share logistics, troops, board members and funding sources and includes radical feminists, humanists, atheists and liberal Jewish and Christian groups. Four organizations furnish most of the leadership. The oldest and best-known is the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU), Americans United for Separation of Church and State, People for the American Way (PFAW) and the Freedom from Religion Foundation (FFRF).

One website claims that Christianity is not only unfashionable, it is apparently on its way to becoming illegal! But hardly anyone seems to object to humanism, paganism or witchcraft, especially as depicted in the movies or on television. Nor does anyone dare to suggest that Islam is not the "religion of peace" that the news media constantly says it is.
'Dirty little secret' - "The ACLU, Americans United, PFAW, FFRF and their allies have filed hundreds of lawsuits since the 1960s on the grounds of "separation of church and state." The phrase, which Jefferson first used in a letter to an association of Connecticut Baptists, appears nowhere in the Constitution."
