Of course, the issue is deeper than what an inanimate object is named. The goal of the PC crowd is to stamp out the word "Christmas", not just change the name of symbols that were once pagan. This is what irks Christians like me; The snuffing out of the Christmas holiday (and all its symbols) from America.

Not to be contrary, but they don't want to "snuff it out". They want us to keep buying and giving, et al, they just want to "change the name" so those few other folks will spend their money too! Sarcasm/

"They" don't seem to consider the fact that there are a lot more of "us" than "them"!

John Gibson was on EWTN and the way he explained it was the ACLU and such that took what was considered secular Christmas symbols such as the candy cane, the tree, red and green and made them to be religious so they could take them out of Christmas. But along with that they are going after these symbols because of the kids. They have to go after them to get at Christianity for the future. Little by little. Even though they are still going after the nativity as well. Look at the nativity and you can see where that could be a threat. Husband and wife and the baby Jesus. That blessed is the fruit of thy womb can cause problems for some people.
