Town Reverses Itself On Roadside Bible Verse Sign

In reaction to a lawsuit filed against it last month (see prior posting), the town of Chichester, New Hampshire's Planning Board has reversed itself and by a vote of 5-2 has agreed to permit an electronic roadside sign that displays a different Bible verse every day to be put up on property along Route 4.  A press release by Alliance Defense Fund says that opponents originally argued that the sign might display "objectionable" Bible verses and might distract drivers more than commercial signs.
