Furthermore if 52 years does not create a "historical value", then for those who say that Roe v Wade is the law of the land and should be accepted because of it precedents as well as the age of the decision, 36 years, seem to have no backing for their arguments either.
You should check your facts a little better next time.

Rather than trying to prove a negative, I would like to hear specifically what historical value this cross has.
About this Roe v. Wade business, I agree that it is silly to say that there is any time frame for what constitutes historical value. For example, I think the 9/11 ground zero has far more historical value than a plow from the 1800's. When the president talks to God
