Regardless of whether it's private businesses or government entities, it doesn't matter. I have no problem with government recognizing that not everybody celebrates Christmas, and including mention of other celebrations. But for the love of pete, they're eradicating all mention of Christmas in order to kowtow to that 10%, because they're so terrified of being accused of (or brought to court for) recognizing the fact that America actually has a predominant religion. I've heard that Congress actually has something in the works that will protect those businesses and government offices from being intimidated out of using the word "Christmas". It'll probably get shot down, though...heaven forbid that something that sensible be passed, right?
The tragedy...and travesty of the whole thing is that we even need for something like this to go to court. It seems as if at some point common sense was outlawed. I remember when it was "if you don't like something, tough. deal with it. It's a free country." How I long for those days again.
