Atheist Group Forces Grieving Mother To Remove Roadside Cross

RE: Atheist Group Forces Grieving Mother To Remove Roadside Cross
This whole crosses beside the road for ded people isn't something I've seen in Alabama, though I have heard a country song about three wooden crosses.

I watched over two and a half minutes, and stopped when he started talking about throwing him in the river when he dies. Personally I don't want my funeral to be expensive either, but don't start chucking bodies in the rivers.

This doesn't seem like an issue that atheists should worry about. Focus on minority rights and women's rights. Focus on keeping religion out of schools and helping science education. He doesn't go into how big this cross is, or if it actually says anything mean, or whatever, but this seems like a petty thing to do.

Basically, the main problem with religion is when they try to shove it down our throats and force us to obey or suffer. That's what we should focus on. Not some little crosses by the roadside where people die in a car crash.

But maybe I'm wrong. Maybe it was a ten foot neon cross that says repent or burn on the front. I don't know.

Good video to watch, if you want to know how common the Jesus story really is.
