How would you feel about Muslim or Rastafarian religious symbols in
your town square?

The problem is that once you start you can't say no to the next group,
and you can't say no to bigger and better.


Since I am an semi agnostic married to a Catholic, I can accept all
religions putting up displays in the town square. I was married by a
Monsignor in a Catholic Church with a JW best man, and a Jewish usher.
Locally the Jewish community puts up a Menorah during their holidays, and
Christians put up Christmas Displays during their holidays, and we have had
different religions also. Seems to work fine. I believe there may be a
higher power, but not sure what it is. May be the Flying Spaghetti Monster.
