"We Need to Tell Them There is a God''

There's a sad irony that we have people running around this country hoisting their religious beliefs on others. Not only the Schiavo case but also the Red lake incident...

"We Need to Tell Them There is a God''
26 March 2005

An Illinois man erected “nine wooden crosses outside Red Lake High School” on Thursday night.

Greg Zanis, of Aurora, Ill., has traveled the country placing crosses he's made to honor people who have died in car accidents and school shootings. He calls his group Crosses for Losses.

Zanis said he puts up the crosses at the scenes of school shootings because he believes they happen because God is excluded from schools, so kids don't learn the difference between right and wrong.

"We need to tell them there is a God,'' he said.

However, in Red Lake, perhaps not everyone believes in the same God as Zanis. On Friday morning, two of the crosses were missing.
