Did you go to the White House web site and read what he said? No? I suggest you do so. They also had religious songs, including an opera singer who spoke of how Christ had touched her heart. The tree was lit to the music of "Joy to the World."

I trust that since you believe that the Christmas tree is still pagan and therefore non-Christian, that you do not have one in your home.

And for your information, I do not believe that Islam is anything but a false religion. I am a Christian who believes in salvation through Christ.

However, I do not expect that the President should state so from his position as leader of all of America. He is the President of Muslim and Jewish Americans as well as my President, and yours.

"I trust that since you believe that the Christmas tree is still pagan and therefore non-Christian, that you do not have one in your home."

The point is, as symbolism goes, the Christmas Tree is not "Christian."

"And for your information, I do not believe that Islam is anything but a false religion. I am a Christian who believes in salvation through Christ."

Amen Sister...

"However, I do not expect that the President should state so from his position as leader of all of other America. He is the President of Muslim and Jewish Americans as well as my President, and yours."

Agreed. OTOH if the President is going to praise Islam in a religious context, it is expected for him to do so with ALL religions as well, but thus opening up a can of worms.

Moreover, if there is any God that ought to praised at the WH, there is our Founding Fathers' historical precedence that it is the God of the Bible who should be praised. NOT some pagan moon god.
