The Mt. Soledad Latin Cross: Q&A (08/24/2006)

The Mt. Soledad Latin Cross (08/24/2006)
The ACLU of San Diego & Imperial Counties and the ACLU Foundation, through its Program on Freedom of Religion and Belief, filed suit in Federal Court in the Southern District of California in August 2006, to contest the Federal government's eminent domain seizure and continued display of the Mt. Soledad Latin cross in San Diego.

ACLU Cases Defending Religious Freedom (08/24/2006)
The ACLU vigorously defends the right of Americans to practice religion. But because the ACLU is often better known for its work preventing the government from promoting and funding selected religious activities, it is often wrongly assumed that the ACLU does not zealously defend the rights of religious believers, including Christians, to practice their religion. The cases below - including several where the ACLU even defended the rights of religious believers to condemn homosexuality or abortion - reveal just how mistaken such assumptions are.
