Why is it these same people do not forbid any Muslim displays. I have yet to see the A.C.L.U. demand that Jews refrain from religious displays in public ( I am neither anti Muslim Or Jew),just wondering why Christians take such a beating,after all they are not at war with anyone as a religious group.I believe the I.R.A. have settled down and are behaving like rational human beings for now .

It is the A.B.C. philosophy of the left: Anything But Christianity. If Christianity was to be wiped out this very day, the left would begin work on Judaism tomorrow. The only religion they want is Socialism.
The funny part is, people try to say that Christmas is exlusionary. Well, so is Hanukah and so is Ramadan. Personally, I'm not offended if Jewish people want to celebrate Hanukah. However, don't tell me that I can't celebrate, or say, Christmas.

According the PC police, Muslim displays do not promote religion. They promote cultural diversity. This is how government schools could get away with providing prayer rooms for Muslim students and making Islamic holy days as school holidays, while slamming down on all references to Christmas.

"... just wondering why Christians take such a beating,after all they are not

They just keep voting in liberals who a determined to destroy every last vestige
of Christianity in America.

It's very simple and clear.
The ACLU is religiously (LOL!) following a part of their holy writings.
The situation you observe has arisen because their saint, Thomas Jefferson
mentioned something in a letter about a "separation of church and state".
Being lawyers (and much smarter than you and I), the ACLU realized that
Jefferson never said anything about a "separation of mosque/synagogue and state".
Yep, that's what the ACLU is doing when they aren't raising money by trying
to scare the crap out of people over John Ashcroft and the EEEVVVIIILLL Patriot Act or
reading their main scriptures in Das Kapital.

'....wondering why Christians take such a beating...'
Perhaps because Christians often turn the other cheek or are too polite or just don't have the courage to confront their offenders. But, last time I looked, Christians have rights too and it's time Christians begin to stand up for those rights. On O'Reilly's show, Mark Green of NY said it was ok to display Jewish Star and Muslim Crescent but not the Nativity scene. It's amazing that, so called, intelligent people can make these type of statements with a straight face!
