I understand non-Christian theists being upset, but why do atheists give a shite?

Why do atheists get so worked up about a God they supposedly don't believe in? Is it an insecurity type of thing?

They want the courts to be responsible for getting the crosses removed. Don't want to do it themselves.

just in case....

I'd like to see someone blow the 4th circuit's minds and argue that there ruling is unconstitutional because it favors atheism over Christianity.

No it's because we care about the Separation of Church and State

I would say it most certainly is.

Liberalism is a catch all for people who are miserable and want everyone else to be miserable along with them.

How many folks do you reckon had religion established upon them because of this monument that's been in place for nearly 100 years? I mean it must number in the thousands, huh?

They don't give a shite. They are spiteful and only want to do this stuff to piss religious people off. No other reason. Look at the OP for an example. Whatever helps them fill that void, I guess. More power to them.

It's probably cuz most atheists are old enough to remember when that s*** was being forced down our throats and we were being told how to live because of the church.

I'm agnostic so I really don't care. I do think atheists go a little far but so do the people they're responding to.

Big win. Y'all sued over a monument for World War I Soldiers. Really, Really big win. Huge.

Truth be told, some moron saw "cross" and was filled with rage because well, we can't have that, in ANY context.

Same insecurity as a Baptist insecure about the beliefs of Mormons and Catholics and whatnot... Only even bigger
