A cross to remember the dead. My religious beliefs are fairly well known to Soul Casters. If you're a newb I'm an atheist and I think all you people who believe a space ghost created us and handed down morality from his cloud city are kinda stupid. I'm a strong believer that Church and State MUST both remain separated and be separated in places where it has been allowed to grow together. Such as with marriage. A marriage is a legal partnership contract dealing with how property is used and split in case of a split, it allows for medical decisions blah blah blah. You should be able to be partners with men, women, or twelve of each. The problem here is we have allowed Religion to creep in and it must be driven out. I'd personally take "under God" from the pledge. It was added fifty years ago to make us better than the Russians. We were scared, it happens.
There are lines that aren't supposed to be crossed though. One of them is that we as a primarily Christian Nation put crosses up to comemorate our dead. Sorry about being a Jew or a Muslim or an American Indian or any other religion that may have given your life in a particular conflict. You need to increase your numbers so you get a bigger vote next time we have a World War. The fact is that the Cross isn't about diminishing what you and your familes contributed to the war. The people who put up the Cross weren't even thinking about what religion the fallen were. They were remembering that great men gave their lives so that others could live in freedom. It cheapens what these men did for you to bicker about it.
