    Yes, public property should be devoid of all religious symbols.

    To put it in a public space is to force a religion onto all the people.

    We have Freedom of religion for a reason.

    The military FORCING people to be christian and pray is a BAD thing.
    There has been a big push to get more religion(Christianity) into the military.
    The Mid-East used to be pretty free and open, then religious group started infecting the government, and withing a decade religion was forced onto all the people, and te countries generally stopped producing anything and became ces pools.

    False. Climate change is climate change, global warming id global warming. Anyone who says they are the same, or that it has been changed, is either a liar, or ignorant.

    Probably ignorant.
    anthropomorphic global warming (AGW) is a fact.
    In fact, it's so simply even you could devise a test.

    3) When visible light strike an object, IR is generated. Testable? Yes. Tested? Yes. Could anyone devise a test? Yes
    4) Green house gasses, such as CO2, absorb energy(heat) from IR. Testable? Yes. Tested? Yes. Could anyone devise a test? Yes
    5) Humans produce more CO2(and other green house gasses) then can be absorbed through the cycle. Testable? Yes. Tested? Yes. Could anyone devise a test? Yes

    Each one of those has been tested, a lot. You notice deniers don't actual address the facts of AGW? Don't have a test that shows those facts to be false?
