"He was sneaky. He took advantage of his access to children to preach, and that simply cannot be allowed to happen," said Dick Kurtenbach of the Kansas ACLU, which has made a complaint.

And, yet teachers who preach the orthodox religion of the state church will always be protected by the Anti-Christian Lunatics Union.

One of my favorite memories of skool daze was the yearly school Christmas Concert. I was in the school choir for many years, and dearly loved singing those old songs. My favorite was "Angels We Have Heard on High." And I was NOT involved in any religion, although I did attend the Episcopal church so that I could sing in the choir.

The Christmas tree has for many lost its religious meaning over the decades.

Oh for crying out loud.

A Christmas tree never even *had* a "religious" meaning. At least not a Christian one.

Santas are fine as long as they do not proselytise in schools

And just what would Santa proselytise about, the benefits of wearing red with white fur trim?

Any school, public library, university or government building which at this time of year crosses the constitutional boundary between church and state - be it simply through singing Silent Night or erecting a nativity scene on the lawn - risks being the target of a lawsuit.

The Constitution says nothing about the "separation of church and state"

I think today's "Secular Humanists" are fighting to be free from annoyance.

Would that we were all free from annoyance...

If you wish me a Happy atheists day I would reply, Thank you, and keep moving.

It's NOT religion, it's Christ that's the problem with secularists.

Merry Christmas to all.

BS. It will always be CHRISTMAS with the Baby Jesus, families, christmas trees, decorations, Santa, the elves here in America.

What there won't be is an ACLU, haters of America, etc.
