Cross Controversy
Does Judge Thompson’s order relative to the Mt. Soledad and Mt. Helix crosses mean that crosses must be removed from veterans’ graves in all the national cemeteries? Isn’t this getting a little ridiculous?
The suggestion that title to the properties on which the two crosses are located might be transferred to private nonprofit corporations for a small consideration is a good one. Or perhaps a constitutional amendment to clarify the real intent of separation of church and state should be considered.
Certainly the intent wasn’t to result in silly rulings like this one.
