With the issues coming to a head about Christmas and the display of Christmas icons such as nativity scenes etc. , the ACLU seems to have taken a back seat to the news that "thinking people" are now taking it upon themselves to regulate policy.
Many elected officials throughout this nation are now so afraid that the ACLU or other bodies might sue the pants off of their city, school or private organization that they are regulating Christmas. They are removing all traces of Christmas from pageants private and public event alike.
It's time to sue the ACLU.
Religion, especially the Christian religion in the USA, is what made the such a great country in the first place. This "Brew HaHa" is already in the courts, but a little "in your face" peaceful uprising would drive home the point.
If you have the time and inclination show the religious side of Christmas. Do a nativity scene in front of your house, sing Christmas carols that include the words Christ, Angels, Heavenly Host, Christ Child. Respectfully request that cities, municipalities, counties, schools include these things in their memos, letters to the parents, on their billboards. Wish everyone a Merry Christmas NOT happy holidays.

Sorry. Can't say I agree with this. People should be free to not be barraged with images of religion perpetuated by the state just as we have the right to shut of the tv when we are overwhelmed by the commercially motivated advertising. Being white and from a Christian background - although, I am now non-Christian and consider myself a pagan - I believe that the individual has the right to celebrate their faith whichever way they like, that the state has no right to cater to the whims of one group.
So, was America really based on Christian values? I believe that your ancestors came to North American and obliterated the faith of the native peoples. If you want to be truly American, you should be observing the rites of the original "Americans.
