Hitler would be proud...sheesh. Thats a poorly chosen statement if I ever saw one, not to mention incorrect and over the top.

The point is, these were bible verses, the religous text of christainity. Blame the supposed persecution of things christian or the fact that its just beautiful literature all you want, but it still a piece of religious text that has references to the Christian God. In case you didnt know, some Americans dont believe in God.

Considering the Grand Canyon is considered sacred by native americans, who were forcibly christianized in mass for all intents and purposes, I consider these plaques not only unconstitutional but offensive as well. Good riddance I say, we have enough painful reminders of the past.
