Stardate 20010925.1429 (On Screen): Here's an example of why most of the US is contemptuous about the Bible Belt. A town in northern Georgia, in response to the WTC bombing, has decided to post two picture frames in every building. One of them contains the Ten Commandments. (Of course!) The other is empty, for "people who don't believe in anything." Apparently those are your only choices: Judeo-Christian teachings, or nothing at all. I have news for Mr. McMillon: I'm an atheist but I believe in a great deal. It just doesn't happen to be what he believes in. Of course, Mr. McMillon isn't concerned about non-Christians like me because "we don't have any of them here." I have a suspicion he's about to find out the hard way how wrong he is. In the meantime he might want to consult his city attorney for a briefing on what
an establishment of religion is (and why it isn't permitted).
