The War On Christmas Just Won’t End

[MMI]

Here in Leicester, we fund public celebration of Diwali, Hunukkah, Christmas and Chinese New Year quite happily, as well as Sikh and Moslem festivities (well, as happily as anyone who has no choice how our money is spent).

Here in Leicester, we fund public celebration of Diwali, Hunukkah, Christmas and Chinese New Year quite happily, as well as Sikh and Moslem festivities (well, as happily as anyone who has no choice how our money is spent).

According to the Supreme Court's interpretation of the American Constitution, public celebrations which are inclusive of ALL are perfectly acceptable. Having public displays featuring all of the different religious and non-religious groups is perfectly acceptable. Even if some of us consider it a waste of money. The supposed "War on Christmas" is a war only in the minds of those Christians who believe that theirs is the ONLY reason for celebrating. Having a Christmas Tree singles out those Christians. Having a Holiday Tree includes everyone.
