Yeah, that's a real classy display they've made for themselves!

Personally, I think that Kramer and George could have done much better!

I just don't get what the big deal is.  While it does not bother me what-so-ever if there is a religious display on public or private property, I can see no reason why anyone feels they have the need to put one there.  It just seems like there is a large group of attention whores on both sides of the issue that can't seem to keep their opinions to themselves.  That is MY opinion.....YMMV!!!

I'm confused--who's the "goose" and who's the "gander?"  

I'm not religious, but I'm suuuuuure getting tired of seeing simple references to God being attacked by the tiny, militant minority of atheists, using the non-existent line of crap they do.  It's getting reeeeeal old.  I hope Christians and other "decent folk" begin to fight back.  On the rare occasion I am able to say the Pledge, I now say the "under God" phrase extra loud, just to make my little point.  If the Leftists/atheists are successful in stamping God out of society, I will be making many more points.

One's depth of religous belief can usually be determined by the inverse of their outwards demonstrations of same.

YMMV.

That should be 'One's depth of religous belief can sometimes be determined by the inverse of their outwards demonstrations of same.'

I especially like this part:

Another display celebrating Zoroastrianism was erected by Stella Darby, who wanted to encourage people to research the ancient Persian religion.

Borders - Non-existent

Language - When was the last time you wer not offered an option in Spanish? Hell, even the President has given speeches in Spanish

Culture - Our most popular national holidays are either banned or openly debased in public settings.

When Jesus Christ died for me, that was pretty "showy"

But it ALSO had immense "depth."

But I don't get it -

If Seinfeld was the show about "nothing" why do you need a holiday celebrating "nothing?"  (its a rhetorical  question    )

No, but they are usually pretty vocal about how they are SOOOO sure there is no God.

i dunno. i gonverted over to that 'oktoberfest' religion a couple of years ago 'cause they had the best beer.

after the hangovers, i'm thinking about going back to worshipping rocks...less drunk dickheads to deal with at the worship services.

If they only knew Festivus was a actually veiled slam against the idiocy of Kwanzaa.
