MADISON, Wis. (AP) -- A Madison foundation continues its crusade against religion in the government-operated Veterans Administration hospitals.

The Freedom From Religion Foundation pressed the Madison VA hospital to remove a sales display by Christian book store.

The hospital then took down the displays in the lobby and auditorium put up by the Inspired By Him Christian book store.

The foundation is also waiting for a federal appeals court ruling on the VA's broader policy of offering religious counseling to patients at VA hospitals nationwide.
