Can you stop the Muslim extremists from blowing stuff up since you all believe in a deity? Ok thanks.
imafatkid, this is pretty much what you're saying.

You miss the point. All it would take is for atheists to come out against these displays by the attention whores in their fold. This doesn't happen. For me, that makes it seem obvious you guys support this action.
I give exactly as many shits about the Satanic display as I give about the Nativity display: zero. Neither mean much to me, but I'm happy to let people exercise their rights to freedom of speech and expression. More power to them.
I'm more interested in how other people respond to the displays than I am in the displays themselves.

Your silence speaks for you. You support these people by not denouncing them. It's really that simple.

I'm not missing the point. I don't care what this woman did, she doesn't speak for me, and it's not even located in my state. I have no reason to support her cause or question it's placement. I AM NOT AFFILIATED WITH HER. Absence of a belief is not a belief, so I'm not quite sure why you are trying to lump all these people together.
Should all people with facial scars come out against Drew Brees for being awful yesterday?

there is a lot of stuff in the philosophy of the CoS that i'm like "yeah that sounds like my world view"
but every time you sea/hear about some CoS person they're usually nerdy, meek, and attention-seeking. aka, they annoy me
plus just the choice of such an attention-whore name is terrible. i could never claim any association to that lot

i presume you don't question or disparage the motives of those who build the christian displays?
Nope. You go ahead though. Honestly, I don't pay attention to any if these until there are news articles about them.

But since it rustles your jimmies, I'm happy to let you continue believing that.

Yes, you are, whether you like it or not. That should bother you.

i denounce their attention whoring, the same as christians. there are just many more christians who push their beliefs on me more than just putting up a display. i don't know what else about their display is in need of denouncing
i have no issue with what christians believe, as long as they keep it to themselves. don't influence my government or try to interject yourself into my life. same applies to the CoS

There are many people who would agree with this statement. I don't like it, and would denounce them at every chance.

So, in your mind, you're linked with terrorists and Westboro church. I'd rather take the attention seeking nerds.

If you're refering to the riflemans association, then no.

I can't help what others do in the name of my faith. That doesn't mean I sit idly by and allow people to wonder what my stance is on them.

what exactly are you looking for in terms of statements about the people who made the statue?

Your sidestepping of this issue tells me everything I need to know.
