- Steel cross erected near I-75 cut down | The 50-foot-high steel cross near the Clinton-Norris exit ran afoul of Anderson County zoning laws, and a ruling by a judge on Monday left Potter with two options - move the cross to another location on the same property or take it down. (Knoxville News Sentinel, Tenn.)
More articles of interest:
- If it's supernatural it isn't science | National media attention focused on suburban Cobb County, Ga., last week as a federal court heard constitutional challenges to a school district policy requiring that a biology textbook carry this disclaimer: "Evolution is a theory, not a fact, regarding the origin of living things. This material should be approached with an open mind, studied carefully, and critically considered." Plaintiffs complain that the disclaimer, which is similar to others popping up in school districts from Alabama to Wisconsin, violates the separation of church and state. But scientists themselves call evolution a theory. Why can't a school district? (Edward J. Larson, Los Angeles Times)
- Filtering priests' sins through two prisms | It is perhaps no surprise that playwrights have used the revelations of decades of sexual abuse in the Roman Catholic Church as material (The New York Times)
- Church leaders urged to help save wildlife | The Executive Director of the Wildlife Division of the Ministry of Lands and Forestry, Mr Yaw Ofori-Frimpong, has urged church leaders to work together to secure the future of wildlife in the country. (GhanaWeb, Ghana)
