How smug and liberal you sound. Seems that you think it's universal with regard to other faiths. It is not. They have freedoms to celebrate their faiths and holidays in Texas public schools. Besides, my main point is the midwinter celebration farce. As if it is now just a great tradition to celebrate that particularly dreary season every year! Therein lies the hypocrisy. Just curious, you are probably opposed to the “one nation under God” too, right? We say that in the pledge at a public school. You pay taxes in a country that has a Judeo- Christian foundation. Get over it.

I think you have me all wrong. I am not smug. On the contray I wrote more than once I am not at all hostile to religion or faith. But in all fairness, taxpayer money should not be spent to promote religion. Now if it ever comes to pass that you cannot practice your religion on your own dime it’s gonna be time to break out the pitchforks.

And winter is not at all dreary to me. I love it! If people want to celebrate winter, summer, spring and fall so what?
