Buddha, faeries, a yin/yang statuette, shinto, confuscian, the swastika (which was originally a religious symbol), the baha'i faith symbol, or hey how about the ancient Egyptian god Min, who is most appropriately depicted as having a HUGE phallus?

If you root for the white crosses, you MUST also root for all the above - and more. If you have a problem with any of the above, then you must root against the white crosses.

"Religious freedom" applies to all religions. It's either allowed to be expressed on the lawn, or it isn't.

How other does this happen outside of The Villages in a typical suburban US town? Besides you, who is living in fear that it could happen?
