The Fourth of July is a popular day of secular celebration. What’s wrong with that?

Is he saying that he doesn’t want to get Christmas off from work? Probably not. He can use that day for whatever purpose he wants. There. Equality. Now, go home and stop bothering the rest of us.

>>The argument was that it was unfair that atheists had no such recognized days.

OK. What days do they want to celebrate the birth and resurrection of their Savior?

Silly atheists....He came for you too!

Seems like this would be the fastest dismissal in court history.

"No religion? No holy days. Dismissed." *gavel*

Whatever atheists decide to celebrate, it won’t be called a “holi-day” will it?

There’s always FESTIVUS!

New Years is a good secular holiday.

Pine Curtain..... unless your in the middle of a tree farm sure never looked like any kind of “curtain”.
Is there a Mesquite Curtain too?

This is beginning to look like some kind of liberal concerted effort conspirancy against us East Texas hayseeds. The atheists trying to shut down the Divinty Scene in Athens, Ditzy Hannah protesting “the” pipeline in Wood County, some nutty self-proclaimed “preacher” suing against In God We Trust in Wood County, now this. Guess these idiots never heard of “Don’t Mess With Texas”, so far they are batting 0.

Pick a religion, get a holy day.

Pick none, get double time for working Christmas.

Seems a fair trade-off.

Since they want to be on equal footing with Christianity and Judaism, we need to get their religion out of our schools
