Final Decision Regarding Legality Of Nativity Scene That Has Been Up For 40 Years According to recent reports, a nativity scene at Jay City Hall in Jay, Florida has just been removed after complaints from the Freedom From Religion Foundation deemed the tradition unlawful. It is our understanding that the town of Jay owns and erects a nativity in front of Jay City Hall. We understand that the nativity is the lone holiday display, FFRF attorney Andrew Seidel said in a statement. It is unlawful for the town to maintain, erect, or host a holiday display that consists solely of a nativity scene, thus singling out, showing preference for, and endorsing one religion. The Supreme Court has ruled it is impermissible to place a nativity scene as the sole focus of a display on government property. Seidel went on to claim that the action tells nonbelievers and non-Christians that they are outsiders in their community, and they are excluded. He also calls the display a blow at religious liberty. Despite many complaints, the town ultimately made the decision to move the nativity scene to a location downtown. According to Mayor Kurvin Qualls the display will be more visible to the public than it was right here at city hall. The scene has been displayed every year for 40 years. What do you think of complaints from the FFRF?
