After losing my job because of a long illness, I had to go
to the Division of Family Services in Ft. Lauderdale,
Florida to apply for food stamps. The office of the intake
worker had a large wooden cross displayed prominantly on
the wall behind his head. On either side were large
pictures of Jesus and Mary. I feel intimidated enough being
a Muslim in today's climate, and even tho he might not
treat me different, it made me feel uncomfortable. Should
religious symbols be displayed in the offices of state
workers like that?
