Atheists put anti-religious billboard next to Nativity in state Capitol

Another example of poltical correctness gone too far. An atheist group in the state of Washington has gotten permission to put a sign up in the state Capitol declaring there is no god, and that December is simply the Winter Solstice, not a month for a Christian holiday.

The group got permission after a Christian group had to sue the state to allow a Nativity to be placed in the building. That lawsuit was the result of being told the Nativity was "too religious" after allowing a Jewish Menorah to be placed there two years ago.
The big question now is "how far will this go?" Will another group get permission to put up its anti-Christmas statement in the Capitol? Where will it stop?
I for one have had enough. A news report last month reported that atheists feel left out at Christmas. Well that's too bad. Leave my holiday alone, and go hug a tree for Mother Earth. Oh, speaking of trees, did I mention that the displays are next to the politically correct "holiday tree" in the Capitol. Looks like a Christmas tree to me!
