Cross Monument Removed by CA Town After 5 Decades: ‘They Hate It… Hate What It Represents’
(Worthy News) – A legal battle over religious freedom is underway in a small town outside of San Francisco, CA, as a small group of Christians fight to re-install a 28-foot cross removed from a parcel of land last month.
A bench trial began Tuesday in a U.S. district court to determine whether the city of Albany Hill could invoke eminent domain to take the Lions Club’s easement, which has been used to access the cross for more than 50 years.
Since 1970, the cross has perched atop Albany Hill overlooking California’s East Bay. Dorena Osborn told the Washington Times it has been there since her father and another community leader sold 1.1 acres of land to the city. The Lions Club was granted an easement as part of a 1973 deal. The land was turned into a public park and the cross was built. [ Source (Read More…) ]
