Simply awesome!

From every mountainside: Let freedom ring!

I am going to consider those folks caroling my greatest Christmas gift this year!

Merry Christmas to them, one an all.

Well, where were you on Nov 2? In a closet? ( He appears in mysterious ways!)

God bless America and MERRY CHRISTMAS!

Here is the face of REAL Americans, so why aren't we running these godless yokels out of town, or at least out of the public square?

Seventy-nine percent of Americans believe that, as the Bible says, Jesus Christ was born of the Virgin Mary, without a human father

Every Christian display a cross,on their private property, and as near to ACLU offices as possible. Place them beside the freeways, across from schools, near Islamic centers, as close to courts and government buildings as humanly possible. It would drive em nuts!(Also a clear warning which is only fair.)

Bumping your post!

I agree. I know very few Jews who complain about Christmas. While I might be more comfortable saying 'Happy Holidays', I'm not offended if someone wishes me a Merry Christmas. It is the message of Christmas that makes the season so joyful
I understand this parade began as a private tradition. Shows you what happens when the govt gets involved. I say let the mayor have his little parade of lights, then rent some hay wagons (do they still have those?) and ride all around the town singing Christmas carols. Make it the 'alternative' parade :), and see which one grows.

Our friends in the Jewish community are rarely involved in this kind of action.

THanks for posting this - its great!! Does anyone out there have any manufacturing experience. I have an idea for a christian item I want to mass produce. I have no idea where to start to manufacture it.

There is much to resent in this civic sanctioned anti-Christian bigotry. However,I seriously question the judgement of the pastor and his congregation. Is this parade of Santa Claus and homos such a thing with which to affilliate the holy name of our Lord in blessed carols?

Perhaps devout Christians should consider withdrawing from these gaudy spectacles and "holiday" displays to homes and churches where Christ can be reverentially regarded and truly cherished through sacred music, the reading of Scripture, and prayer.
