Cross targeted by atheists will remain standing on Florida public propertyA 78-year-old cross on public property in Florida targeted by atheist groups will remain standing after a victory in the 11th Circuit Court of Appeals. The court ruled Wednesday that the Bayview Cross in Pensacola, which was built ahead of World War II as a place for the community to gather, does not violate the Constitution. “The Supreme Court has now made clear that religious symbols are an important part of our nation’s history and culture,” Luke Goodrich, vice president and senior counsel at Becket, said in a statement.The federal appeals court ruled the cross is constitutional, noting it has become “embedded in the fabric of the Pensacola community” and that removing it could “strike many as aggressively hostile to religion.” Four individuals, represented by the American Humanist Association and the Freedom From Religion Foundation, sued the city in 2016, demanding the cross be torn down. https://www.foxnews.com/us/florida-cross-pensacola-christian-atheist-courtJustice breaking out all over America! step by step by step

Awesome.
I hope this paves the way for sigil of Baphomet statues, displays of Islamic symbols, representations of Hindu deities, torahs on display, and places in the United States for a Zoroastrian burial!
