KNOXVILLE, Tenn. — A police department in Tennessee has decided to relocate a Scripture plaque that has long been displayed on its walls following receipt of a complaint from a prominent atheist activist organization.

Knoxville Police Chief David Rausch explained during a news conference on Wednesday that the plaque, which quotes from Romans 8:31, will be moved from near the employee deli to a soon-coming Hall of Inspiration inside the the Safety Building.

“What shall we then say to these things? If God be for us, then who can be against us?” it reads.

Rausch had received an email from the Wisconsin-based Freedom From Religion Foundation (FFRF), which asserted that the plaque was in violation of the U.S. Constitution. The group threatened a lawsuit if the display was not removed.

1. What shall we then say to these things? If God be for us, then who can be against us?

From the looks of things, almost the entire world!

2. Nice how so many of you are borrowing/imitating my heading.

And imitation being the sincerest form of flattery, I am indeed flattered.

It is almost like having disciples.

And reading Christian news. Dare we hold out hope?
