The irony in Christians fighting for putting up as much Christian shit as possible in public areas is that-- at least for now-- our First Amendment rights always allow for other non-Christian shit to similarly be displayed. Thus, after the Oklahoma legislature paved the way for a (privately-funded) Ten Commandments display to appear in Capitol grounds, some Satanists quickly moved to have a (privately-funded, and totally spectacular) Baphomet display appear there as well.
Regarding the letter of Joe A. Putnam, who whined that we should urge Gov. Fallin to again have teacher-led official school prayers put in place, I noted that:
I have no doubts that when the day comes that someone gives a prayer to Satan in a 'public meeting' Christians like Mr Putnam will be livid. And it will all be their own fault. [Emph. in original]Well, don't say I didn't warn you....
