David Saperstein writes today's must-read, on the disturbing theft of the Mojave Cross, which was just allowed to stay standing as a national war memorial by a decision of the Supreme Court.
Particularly distressing are the anonymous communications, allegedly from the thief, indicating that this was done out of opposition to the Supreme Court's decision and out of respect for our Constitution and non-Christian war dead. As a Jew and an avid pro-separationist precisely because I believe it enhances religious freedom, autonomy, tolerance and respect, I unequivocally condemn this action, for this theft desecrates our rule of law as much as it does this religious symbol.
