As far as I am concerned, holiday displays celebrate the
diversity in
our community and we should accept them all.
That might mean the christians have to tolerate a wiccan display on
halloween tho. Fair is fair.

To understand what the fuss is about I think you have to put yourself
in the minority view for a minute. For example, what if you
lived in
a town that had an Islamic majority, and everywhere you went there
were Islamic religious symbols on display. After a while you would
probably come around to the view that Islam was the "official"
religion and that everything else,
Well, not if you were in America and ever went to school..
including your own beliefs, was
merely tolerated if at all. Much of this debate started in the NYC
suburbs that have a very significant Jewish population. They
rightfully took offense at being surrounded by Christian religious
symbols, especially those on government property.
They really didn't "take offense" to the baby Jesus, it's only fringe
groups and liars that say they are "offended" by a couple of crossed
pieces of wood...
Ahh, now the uneducated, ignorant PsychoSnotty speaks for Jews.
Ah, the hateful bigoted Hitler wanna' be speaks for the progressives...
I am a progressive. You are not a Jew.
Are you sure about that? What a bigot. Lucky you are a progressive, the
willfully ignorant here will back you up...
I am sure I am a progressive. I am sure you are not a Jew.
