Hex Signs in the Desert

In New Mexico a rampant fear has spread across the state. The fear of late was generated by the challenge in federal court of several citizens to the use of the Latin crosses of the Trinity by the City of Las Cruces to represent all citizens. The latest use of the hex sign to protect Las Cruces is the now approved license plate. So.......

Congratulations, Las Cruces. You have sat back and allowed a secretive group of evangelicals lie to you so long that you believe whatever they say. Federal judges have used their courtrooms to promote their religious beliefs, contrary to laws of the United States, and New Mexico, that they have sworn to uphold. When judges lie and abuse their positions they should resign. These two judges’ actions apparently belie a belief that their religion puts them above the law.

The result now is that the proud Las Cruces has a license plate that promotes Christianity over all other religions and non-religions. Totally in-your-face prejudice that seems to escape the evangelicals on the city council. No other city in the United States promotes one group or one religion above the other citizens and their beliefs, or lack of, like Las Cruces. Total pride in prejudice.

To the glee of the evangelicals this prejudice has permeated the public schools. Representatives of the Las Cruces Public School District have lied, repeatedly, and in federal court, about the religious intent of the actions of the District. One just has to look at the secret purchase of the stadium crosses on Tashiro Drive, in violation of several New Mexico laws, to understand what is going on. The Court accepted the District lies about the crosses on the wall in Booker T. Washington Elementary School.

And now Las Cruces you have a license plate that we all know what it represents. It’s good, actually, for now we will all know who supports the City Council’s standard for prejudice. And as I have said many times before, Las Cruces and the Chamber of Commerce use evangelical Christianity as a commodity and export; more so now as these ‘believers’ drive around the country showing their pride in religious prejudice.

A Book of Enlightenment

A new 2009 book from Sense Publishing is out for any citizen desiring Enlightenment. The book's subject is taboo in some church and civic circles and is long overdue as it exposes what is whispered in 'polite' Christian society. The title of the book is: Investigating Christian Privilege and Religious Oppression in the United States and is edited by Warren J. Blumenfeld, Khyati Y. Joshi, and Ellen E. Fairchild. The knowledge of just how deep the faith-based legal system of New Mexico, the 10th Circuit Court of Appeals, and the United States, stoops to force Christianity on the unsuspecting people will scare the 'bejesus' out of you. Christians who 'testify' with the old wink-'n-nod in public of their religious beliefs, and thereby, knowingly extract privileges are not happy with this exposure. It's like federal Judge Robert Brack justifying his illegal behavior and rulings in his court and chambers by testifying, "I am a Christian.", to explain away his actions that benefit him.
