<P>I want to replace all the crosses with big fat Buddhas and Zeus. It is not my religion but I find it more meaningful than a cross. If they want it to be a symbol of Christianity they should use a crucifix instead.</P>

<DIV></DIV>>Although I am against the government "sponsoring" any specific religion, I
<DIV></DIV>
<DIV></DIV>>believe that the cross does have a place in federal buildings. In my mind
<DIV></DIV>
<DIV></DIV>>it represents the vast majority of recognized religions within the United
<DIV></DIV>
<DIV></DIV>>States.
<DIV></DIV>
<DIV></DIV>>
<DIV></DIV>
<DIV></DIV>>I also believe in the separation of church and state in that (as suggested
<DIV></DIV>
<DIV></DIV>>above) our government must not prefer (or favor) one religion over any
<DIV></DIV>
<DIV></DIV>>other. If I didn't believe in God or any religion, I certainly would not
<DIV></DIV>
<DIV></DIV>>have been married in a church.
