Robert said it better than I could:
An eight-year-old boy was killed [...] by a group of people, among them his mother, who were convinced that he was possessed by evil spirits. [...] He died, not once upon a time, but last Friday. Meanwhile, [...] another group of people is fighting to block a[n Old Testament] monument from being removed from a Federal courthouse, [...] and they wonder why someone would be offended [by it]?
