This, along with teenage American girls becoming vegetarians, is one of those single item indications of serious mental/emotional problems.

How can a society stop at banning just symbols? Once the symbols have been affectively removed, don't you think the next logical step will be the persons who believe Christian ideas?

Remember the former Soviet Union? The PRC? Cuba? Berkeley, California?

I wonder if these same people are offended by getting PAID for not having to go to work on December 25.

Don't tell them that a Dove is a Christian symbol or they'll have to dismantle their main attraction.

The city of Pittsburgh invented the term "Sparkle Days" so that no Pittsburgher would have to utter the controversial word "Christmas"

Actually, it's "Sparkle Season." And there is a beautiful Nativity scene dahntahn. On, like, private property 'n'at.
