: How Appealing"Court: Crosses along Utah highways unconstitutional."
The Deseret News has an update headlined "Court rules in favor of atheist group; highway crosses for fallen troopers unconstitutional; Utah's attorney general strongly disagrees with appeals court."
Warren Richey of The Christian Science Monitor reports that "Roadside crosses for fallen Utah police unconstitutional, court rules; The 10th US Circuit Court of Appeals ruled Wednesday that 12-foot-high crosses honoring fallen members of the Utah Highway Patrol effectively endorse Christianity -- and violate the separation of church and state -- by going beyond the 'more humble spirit of small roadside crosses.'"
Bill Mears of CNN.com reports that "Federal appeals court says highways' crosses are unconstitutional."
And The Associated Press reports that "Appeals court rules against Utah memorial crosses."
You can access today's ruling of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Tenth Circuit at this link.
