My advice for Chattanoogans to shop elsewhere this year. Then, let the city consider its lost tax revenues a bit.

However, the live depiction of Mohammad, copulating with his first goat will be held at 10pm on the city hall lawn.

after several people complained.

What about the majority, whatever happened to majority rule? What is this, dictatorship by a tiny vocal minority? The majority need to fill the streets and let out a roar that will never be ignored again.

Big Deal there is a very simple solution they said they had several complaints so get more Chattanooga’s too complain about this choice and make it clear when election time comes around your vote can easily go to the ones who voted to retain it.

Pretty ironic, given the huge Civil War connection with this town.

My wife and I vacationed for a few days there. Stayed at the train station rebuilt as a hotel. Had a very good time, but the fact is the town is small, and rather drab.

Nice people though.

I just can’t get my mind wrapped around this particular city doing this, given its history.

So do it separate from the city-supported event.

They should’ve have posed with sex toys and worn leather gear like in San Fransicko. That city had no problem funding an anti-Christian event.

The State that is prohibited from supporting my faith is also prohibited from denouncing it.

I tried to phone Ms. Pritchard to express my disgust at her decision but her phone has been disconnected.

However her email is: cpritchard@thecdp.org

I sent her an email and phoned the Mayor’s office: 423-757-5152 and was told they had been getting A LOT of phone calls over this situation.

Keep of the heat up FREEPERS!

...the representation of the birth of Jesus Christ was eliminated after several people complained.

I complained about the 'greening' of the Empire State Building. A fat lot of good that did me.

The few people need to literally go to hell! The City of Chattanooga needs to be boycotted for at least a decade!

...Dr. Seton Tomyn says the decision is disappointing, but understands diverse cultures are part of the city.

If he understands tossing out Christ at Christmas as appeasing 'diverse cultures' he deserves to lose his congregation!

What a wimp!

The war on Christmas continues this year. Its time for Christians to stand up and be as demanding as anti Christians have been. Become militant, become demanding, become a pain in the backside of public officials who cave to atheists and others who just look their way and get results. Let them know you will not sit by and allow symbols of Christianity to be torn away without a major fight. Otherwise, there will soon be nothing left.

1. Tennessee? Oh, good grief.

2. “...was eliminated after several people complained.”? Okay. Will it be REINSTATED “after several people complain”?

I’ve had one foot in Chattanooga and one foot in NC for more than a year now. I’m always bragging about what a wonderful place Chattanooga is to live and work. I certainly found it a good place to raise my kids.

Maybe its time I sell the house and settle in NC more whole-heartedly.
