Americans are being terrorized into not celebrating Xmas

[Eilonnwy]

In my local area there was a to-do about a "Merry Christmas" sign on a fire department building. They were like "Wahh, we had it for 50 years, why do we have to take it down?"

Turns out the city denied a Jewish group from having some sort of Hanukkah celebration on their park and in order to be consistent told the Fire Dept. to remove the sign. They then re-evaluated the rule and decided to let both do what they want, which either way suits me. If you let one you let all, or you deny all. As long as religious groups are treated equally when it comes to using Government land/buildings for these types of things, it's legal. As far as private property, people can do whatever the hell they want.

There's a local house that goes ALL OUT with Christmas decorations I loved it. (Especially when for a Day they incorrectly had a large NOEL spelled NOLE XD).

I think as far as atheists are concerned they fall into different categories. Some take political correctness to far, some treat it as just another day, and others embrace the holiday season because it has a completely secular aspect to it that atheists can take part in without "selling out". I fall in to the last group.
