Quite the controversy

Atheist wants Frankenmuth to remove religious symbols

It appears that, rather than making the place more comfortable for "Jews, Muslims and other non-Christians" who, to this point in time, haven't complained, it's more about himself and the fight itself.

This is the U.S., but how far does any government go to make one person feel happy at the expense of almost everyone else? Interesting...

When I was a kid in Ontario our confirmation class - it was a German Lutheran church - took a trip to Frankenmuth. It was a nice little place. I'm sorry to hear about all this.

From the outside it seems that it's more about 'this bothers me' than 'this might bother these other poor groups'. Like most things today it seems to be 'all about me'. Too bad.
