RECOGNIZE PERSONS PRESENT
Robert Sherman, national spokesman for American Atheists`
Association, Box 7474, Buffalo Grove, Illinois, stated that
he had been requested by residents of Elgin to address the
Council regarding the inclusion of sectarian organizations on
the municipal vehicle licenses. The association asks that in
the future the City look to Article 1, section 3 of the
Illinois Constitution for guidance on the selection of
organizations to commemorate. They ask three things:
1. That the City be aware of the concern of the atheist
community when selecting the vehicle sticker design in future
years.
2. That the City make it known to the residents that
they have permission of the City to clip off the sectarian
portion of the sticker and keep that part that says "City of
Elgin" and the license number.
3. That the City reissue any stickers which are damaged
as a result of a person attempting to remove the sectarian
portion of the vehicle sticker.
Mayor VanDeVoorde advised Mr. Sherman that his recommendation
would be taken into consideration.
Tom Matti, 316 Douglas, Elgin, said he felt the American
people should uphold their First Amendment rights and "Just
say no to atheism.
Richard Douger said he had been written up as one of the most
decorated soldiers. He said he carries a cross in his pocket
now, as he and other soldiers did in combat. He further
stated, "For us to come back here and have them turn down the
cross or any symbol regarding our faith or our belief --this
old soldier here is going to fight against it!"
Ben Brooks, 424 Franklin Boulevard, Elgin, stated, "I don't
believe anyone is fighting against anyone here, but it's just
a matter of our basic right to have separation of church and
state. Anyone studying history knows that religion has
brought fanaticism in the past and will probably bring it in
he future. I would like to have that separation."
Ina Dews, P.O. Box 282, Elgin, stated, "My church is one of
the victims of this sticker. I feel that we did not put any
symbols on here, which I see he has found out. We only have
our names on here. We appreciate your allowing us on the
sticker for our 125 years in this community. I remember one
time it was talked about, earlier then this last year, that
maybe we should go back to the standard sticker. Since it
has created such chaos, and I feel religious groups have as
much right to apply as any other group, maybe we should
consider that. Because, I feel that as long as I have lived
t4'
VOLUME LVI
in this community, if any other organization would be allowed
but not any religious organization, I.would feel very, very
discriminated against."
John Mack, 209 Big Peninsula, Elgin, stated, "I hear this
conversation here, and I can't for the life of me see why a
little item like a city sticker has to be made into such a
big issue . . I have a certain amount of rights. I've
got constitutional rights, and I believe I should, have what I
want. ,And I want it as it is!"
