It's people Like this that give Atheists a bad name

I have a real problem with this story and it might not be what you would expect.

Driver allowed to keep Christian vanity plate

Of COURSE he should be allowed to keep his plate. The idjit who complained, assuming it was an atheist, was an ass if they did it because the plate held a religious message.

The driver has a right to say whatever the heck he wants to on his own personal plate. He paid extra for the priviledge. The fact that licences are issued by the government is irrelevant in my opinion because the statement displayed on this person's plate was his own personal message not a government endorsement of religion. When atheists make such frivolous claims and harass people of faith for legitimate expressions of their faith it hurts us all.

For christ's sake I have a darwin fish on my car. Would this idjit file a claim that I don't have a right to advertise my atheism? Free speach works both ways bozo.

If you want to make legitimate claims against the illegal insertion of religion into places where it doesn't belong and expect those claims to be taken seriously you CAN'T do shit like this.
