Never thought I'd see the day when I agreed with an atheist. But I agree with everything this Rich McNair said in this article.

Libs can say what they want about the silliness of this cause, but I really think this is a war worth fighting. If we don't protect Christmas now, when will we?

A quick Google search turned up this truly scary plan to turn Christmas into "Sodomas": www.thewaronxmas.com. This IS happening. These people don't joke around!

One part of Christmas that does bother me is how materialistic we are making our children. I know it is probably none of my business how others raise their children, but buying cell phones for your kids? Can't your kids pay for their own phones with babysitting money? I guess I just have to raise my child to not expect the material benefits of Christmas, but understand the spiritual side. And call me a grinch, but I always thought Christmas was really a children's holiday. Adults just go nuts with their house, the office space, ect ...

“Even as an atheist,” McNair, 61, went on, “I understand how important religious underpinnings have been to us as a society, setting in motion the values that have defined us as a nation.

*************

Even as a Catholic I can appreciate this man's uncommon "common" sense.

If an atheist can figure it out, why can't the rest. Merry Christmas To All and To All a Good Night!
