Mojave Cross & St. Francis
The Supreme Court recently ruled that a war memorial cross standing in the Mojave Desert can remain. Those who regard any public religious symbol as odious might prefer to attack one much more in the public eye than the Mojave cross, which stands in an uninhabited area and was hardly known before being made a target.
How about we get rid of a real symbol of Christian oppression, San Francisco? This offensive appellation has been spread worldwide and clearly has no justification! A city named after a Catholic saint! Public moneys spent to promote religion. Intolerable!
Let’s have a contest on who can come up with the most appropriate name for the City By The Bay. Of course SF is not the only sainted city, but it seems appropriate that it should go first. We can deal with the remaining San This and Santo Thats (as well as anything named after Columbus, Cortez, Washington, Jefferson, et. al.) later. First things first, people!
