Atheists Sue Ben Carson Over Christian Faith, Then He Fires Back with a Vengeance: Atheist activists must’ve thought Housing and Urban Development Secretary Ben Carson was an easy target. They were wrong.

Johnnie Moore, the... spokesman for President Trump’s Evangelical Council, told Newsmax: “Had I not had the context, I would have thought this news story was from Communist China, not the United States.”

2 judges feel atheists' 'offense' at seeing cross: Michael Carvin... said the memorial “has stood in honor of local veterans for almost 100 years and is lawful under the First Amendment.” “To remove it would be a tremendous dishonor to the local men who gave their lives during The Great War.”
The memorial, he said, “stands in witness to the VALOR, ENDURANCE, COURAGE, and DEVOTION of the 49 residents of Prince George’s County, Maryland..." I cannot agree that a monument so conceived and dedicated and that bears such witness violates the letter or spirit of the very Constitution these heroes died to defend...” See Trusting God as Freedom Fades

And yet, in America, we have moved more towards socialism under Barack Obama, Hillary Clinton, Bernie Sanders and other politicians. Socialism, by its very nature, creates poverty, stagnation and oppression. See Trusting God as Freedom Fades
