In yet another attack on the culture and heritage of a people, the Freedom From Religion group based in Wisconsin is attempting to
force a small town in Alabama to change it's welcome sign because it has a bible verse in it.
The intolerance and totalitarian slant of these Atheistic groups is becoming more and more apparent on both sides of the 49th as they push the envelope of
community tolerance to the limit.
Who will reign these fanatics in? I cannot be sure, but I am sure we wont have to wait long for the Hegelian backlash.

Alabama Town Vows to Defy Anti-Religion Group
It’s the story of David versus Goliath.
“David” is the small Alabama town of Sylvania, population 1,800. “Goliath” is the Wisconsin-based Freedom From Religion Foundation.
The Freedom From Religion Foundation sent a letter to the town demanding that they remove Bible verses that were posted on four welcome signs. They said the signs were unconstitutional.
“Sylvania Welcomes You,” the signs read. “Ephesians 4:5 – One Lord, One Faith, One Baptism.”
“The Sylvania ‘welcome’ signs are not welcoming,” wrote FFRF attorney Patrick Elliott. “They affiliate the government with one religion, Christianity, and exclude others.”
“No court would uphold this blatant violation of the Constitution,” read his letter to television station WAAY. “Local governments have no place in making position statements on such matters.”
Mayor Mitchell Dendy originally had the signs removed two weeks ago. However, he resigned due to an unrelated matter. The acting mayor and city council decided the signs needed to be reposted.
“We’re putting the signs back up and we’ll see what happens,” acting mayor Max Turner told Fox News.”If we don’t stand up for something, it won’t be long before we’ll have to go to the woods to have church.”
Turner said it’s time to draw a line in the sand and fight back against the FFRF.
The 80-year-old acting mayor said to the best of his knowledge there are no atheists living in Sylvania and he said dozens of citizens are supporting their decision.
“We as Christians should stand up for what we believe in as much as them people stand up for what they believe in,” he said, noting that he was prepared to “go down trying to defeat the Devil.”
The south was better without the (atheistic) soot!
