How many golf carts advertise the owners' favorite college/pro team, etc.? Are you offended? The nameplate on our driveway lamp post is the colors of and contains the logo of our Alma Mater--along with our names. Are you offended? On the other hand, Jews, Muslims, Atheists--and especially Christians--agreed to conform to the covenants when we bought our homes. (Read Romans 13.) However, no covenants prevent me from putting a large Star of David, Crescent Moon--and especially a Cross on the INSIDE of a street-facing window. This demonstrates my beliefs; I've conformed to the covenants; and everybody lives. Though silly, here's food for thought: Is the Atheist violating the covenants by NOT putting a symbol of his (non) beliefs in HIS yard. Does his "symbol" offend?
