All this bull crap about how we can't reference christianity in schools and public is getting on my neves! We can't wear religious cloths, can't talk about it publicly, can't include it in artwork. What? Because it offends the athiests and everybody else?

Now we can't even say "Merry Christmas" anymore. You gotta say "Happy Holidays"

Ohhh shut up! This is a christian country, and I'm gonna say Merry Christmas! Like it or lump it!

It's freedom OF religion. Not Freedom FROM religion!

I agree 110% with you.

Seperation of Church and State basically means the government cannot set a national religion.

YES. This means the annual White House Christmas tree is indeed legal and constitutional.

YES. This means you can have a religious symbol on public grounds. Go to Gettysburg. There are memorial crosses EVERYWHERE.

I'm glad I don't go to school in your area.. It's nothing like that in mine...

It's actually not a Christian country. The US was founded in large part as a result of a rebellion against religious oppression, people were told the religion they had to follow, and how to follow it. The idea of religious freedom is a core principle that America is founded on. The US does not have an official religion, and that is so that the population has the freedom to choose their own religion without government interference. This means that any government funded or run organization or department cannot support or deny any religion. Your school is a public school, it is funded by the US government, and as such must remain religion-neutral to be in compliance with the law.

Hahaha! For real! I'm agnostic, but others' religions don't bother me a bit. Only when they try to force it down my throat do I get annoyed.


I do believe if someone has a religion of some sort, they should be allowed to practice it whenever they want. Prayer is for everyone, but it doesn't mean everyone has to do it.

I totally don't understand why anyone would commercialize a religious holiday. If you don't believe in it, why the heck do you celebrate it!? Besides, isn't Christmas a day people should celebrate every day?
