Right wing talk radio demagogues
associate this " war on Christmas " with some generic Left. As a
democratic Socialist myself- and a Roman Catholic- I believe that
separation of church and state is just a form of social sanity in a
secular society. It protects religious people from the dangerous
fanaticism of sects and bizarre cults. But it should not mean hostility
and mean spirited contempt toward traditional religious displays -such
as Christmas symbolism in public places. And I had no problem with that
Prayer on the Wall--- a controversy sparked by militant atheists at
Cranston High School West.
Oddly enough, these New Atheist types are often economic conservatives. Their Queen ,Ayn Rand, wrote " The Virtue of Selfishness " and she continues to inspire the Republican Party today.
So MERRY CHRISTMAS to all- even on the far right.
