Good for the judge. A menorah and a creche are religious symbols. A Christmas tree is a secular symbol.

Actually, a Christmas tree is a religious symbol (whether or not it's your religion is the question), but a creche is hardly religious. It's simply a grouping of statues of Jews and animals.

I think that's what gets some folks up in arms about the creche scenes ~ they either don't like Jews, or they don't like animals.

According to the Supreme Court, a menorah is not a religious symbol.

Nine judges so ruled.

Now we know the true derivation of the word "assiNINE".

PS There is a valid question of whether a menorah which is not candle, gas, oil, or some other falme operated is a religious symbol. The Orthodox hold it isn't. The Assi-nine may have bassed their decision on some derivation of thsi. Who knows? Who cares?

But then that says something about them. And her.

Sooooo. You want to make it illegal to honor one's religious holiday?

C'mon. That is NOT what America is about.

In fact, God help us if this country ever goes all secular, physically and mentally.

Is giving government workers a holiday on December 25 constitutional? Why not abolish the whole celebration as they did in the old Soviet Union.

A Christmas tree is a secular symbol.

That's why so many Jews put them up in their homes. /sarc

Yes, I know a few do.

"Good for the judge. A menorah and a creche are religious symbols."

I wouldn't be surprised if he were a Clinton-appointed judge, and in any event, he doesn't know the First Amendment - FREEDOM OF RELIGION.
