So, I'm back at least for little while and have a concerning issue. My town's deparment building (basically city hall I think) has a nativity scene on their lawn. I first tried calling them. I confirmed it was a government owned building and I asked why they had it. They said it was for Chrismas. I told them it wasn't allowed. A government can not endorse a religion. They then come up with an excuse saying they are going to be putting up a Hanukkah symbol up to. Which doesn't make a difference. When I told the lady on the phone this. She dropped the conversion clearly was mad and told me to write a letter to the mayor. From what I know, writing a letter would get me no where. So, I tried contacting Freedom From Religion and got no answer. So, I'm coming on the forums for some advice on what to do. The problem that I see is I'm 17. I'm pretty certain my parents will be against or neutral to this so I will not have an 18+ help and it's drawing very near to Christmas.
