True.
The law has been used to remove Christian symbols for years. These laws and "interpretations" by judges have been used extensively against Christians. They are laws and do apply to other religions so as you said. "You can't have it both ways."
The law should apply to all religions. Not just Christianity.

Not the letter of the law then?
Christians should be intentionally discriminated against and others allowed to break the law because there are more Christians ?
I don't buy that for a second.
The law applies to everybody.

Do they need a noah's ark statue near the dinosaur area?
Concerned christians, what exactly are they concerned about here?
Exactly, it's a dancing elephant! Nothing more
Living in a multi-cultural country you would think these people would be more tolerant and accepting of others, to bad they can't practise what they preach.

Is the zoo funded by taxpayers?
Or is it a private company?
Simply, why can't faith just be faith anymore. Why does each faith have to be 'right'?
