Conservative Law Firm Fights Atheists’ Suit Over Cross at 9/11 Museum
A conservative law firm founded by Pat Robertson joined a lawsuit to defend a proposed 17-foot cross in the 9/11 museum, Steve Strunsky reports for Religion News Service. “The American Center for Law and Justice (ACLJ) filed a friend-of-the-court brief” in a suit brought by American Atheists who are suing to prevent the cross’ installation. Jay Sekulow, the ACLJ’s chief counsel, says, “The legal arguments of the atheist organization are both offensive and absurd.”
