The War on Christmas
With Black Friday behind us and something called cyber-Monday today, the Christmas season is officially underway. Soon we'll like hear the complaints of those who believe they're being persecuted because Walmart greeters say "Happy Holidays" instead of "Merry Christmas." If only we Americans knew what real persecution is! I'd just as soon not find out.
But word is out that in one Colorado community, a homeowners group is fining Lisa Jensen for her use of a wreath shaped like a peace symbol. Apparently some of her neighbors don't like the political bent of the wreath -- pro-peace and anti-war -- while others deem the peace sign to be Satanic. Yes, here we have it, the latest issue to wrack our nation, Christmas wreaths can be protested for their anti-war or Satanic sentiments!
Diana Butler Bass in her post on the "God's Politics" blog offers a needed corrective to this hogwash. Take a look!
