That is a great idea. All federal, state and county employees should be required to work on religious holidays keeping with the "separation of church and state." Watch the hue and cry if the governments were to start taking away paid holidays. I bet a lot of people would "find religion" then.

They also should keep all government offices open 7 days a week with employees receiving rolling days off. The separation of church and state would allow those who work to be able to conduct their business with the government without having to take off from work. I can hear the wailing and gnashing of teeth from here. LOL

I have a better idea. If you went to school during the 80's and 90's it seemed around December that most of your Jewish friends would be out of school for a couple of weeks due to the Festival of Lights, just make it so that Christians can have the holiday off and non-Christians have to work.
