American Atheists Sue Over World Trade Center Cross

An atheist group sued today over the inclusion of cross-shaped steel beams, dubbed the “World Trade Center Cross,” in the exhibit at the National September 11th Memorial and Museum.

Last weekend the 17-foot cross, discovered in the rubble of 9/11, was given a “ceremonial blessing” by the Rev. Brian Jordan, removed from it’s temporary post near St. Peter’s Church and lowered 70 feet into its permanent home inside the museum.
