    A real atheist wouldn't care. It would just be two poles to them.
    I though atheists lacked belief, so why would it bother them?

    My thought is that they suffered some physical or mental abuse related to religion in their past .......

    or they could just be assholes.

    While I don't necessarily agree with their actions, being a military base, shouldn't it NOT be religious?

    Would you have a problem with the Muslim moon and star posted there? If so, then how come a cross is different?

    any organization wholly devoted to killing people is actually counter to religious teachings.

    how dare the military besmirch christianity in that way?

    and this is coming from me, an atheist...

    I agree (though I can't say I'm an atheist as my cat would never forgive me). I agree with the sense of hypocrisy you allude to so I say let them keep their crosses, learn the concept of loving thy neighbor and get rid of the weaponry.

    atheists don't "lack belief". They just don't believe what religious people believe. My wife once said this to me. "why does it bother you if you don't believe in anything?". I almost exploded in rage at the completely egotistical idea that just because someone is not christian that means they don't believe in anything.

    your statement is quite ironic in that atheists don't believe hell exists.

    what bothers me about your outrage is that if the tables were turned, and this was people honouring nazis killed in battle with a swastika flag, you'd be applauding the ones filing a lawsuit.

    dont think the swastika and a cross are comparable.

    i was just gonna say i find the swastika incredibly offensive... even as an atheist i dont have a problem with crosses... tho i reckon when jesus comes back he might not want to be seeing himself hanging on one so much.

    some find the cross incredibly offensive, but of course most people in 1st world culture can't for the life of them understand why.

    I'm agnostic, and don't find the cross offensive, however I guess depending on the context it has the potential to piss me off.

    i understand some would because of their religious affiliation.. but you know what i think of religion... ALL religions. and of course as an agnostic you dont find the cross offensive.. why would you?
