"The battle over a nativity scene in Athens, Texas, reached new heights this weekend when up to 5,000 supporters flooded the town square. Their purpose? To stand firmly opposed to the attacks a prominent atheist group has waged on the religious display.
As the Blaze reported earlier this month, the Wisconsin-based Freedom From Religion Foundation, a group that frequently targets the presence of faith and religion in the public square, is demanding that a nativity scene be removed from public property.
Supporters of the nativity scene claim that theres an attack on Christianity in America. Its time for us to stand together and protect the very principles that made this nation great from its birth, said Pastor Nathan Lorick, a nativity scene supporter. Weve become so busy with our lives that weve forgotten our first love.
Critics though mostly atheists believe that the scene is offensive and that it should not be present on government property (the nativity is currently positioned in front of the Henderson County Courthouse)."
Don't know about you, but stuff like this, particularly the numskull in the video, makes me sick to my stomach.As the Blaze reported earlier this month, the Wisconsin-based Freedom From Religion Foundation, a group that frequently targets the presence of faith and religion in the public square, is demanding that a nativity scene be removed from public property.
