Commentary on 9/11 atheist lawsuit
Do you think this was very compassionate or positive, in the way this lawsuit was carried out?

I agree, the 9/11 memorial is quite Christian based and to a certain extent - it does go against the first amendment. However it appears that even the president of American Athiests agrees with me in saying

Quote:“They can allow every religious position to put in a symbol of equal size and stature, or they can take it all out, but they don’t get to pick and choose,” Mr. Silverman said.

So I in fact, do officially approve that the 9/11 memorial should include all symbols of all spiritual faiths, including atheists symbol "the atomic symbol"

I just think it was slightly insensitive to other peoples moderate faith in other spiritual concepts to question "where was God" on 9/11.

All I can say is the people on this planet who abide in evil, destruction and chaos are very powerful and that in many spiritual concepts it is clearly stated that "God gives humanity free expression" meaning God will intervene only if God has to. In many ways, God let's bad things happen because life on planet earth is merely a learning experience of both the Good and Bad. In the tragedy of 9/11 much spiritual learning has taken place.

We have come to see the faulty nature of extremism and religion. I think in many ways much of humanity has realized this and seeks a better spiritual life ever since then. However always remember that the life experience on this planet is supposed to be filled with both positive and negative learning experiences, as good and as bad as they can be sometimes.
