"James A. Donald"
But you guys are trying to suppress even the secular aspects of Christmas - you were suing against the display of Christmas trees, not the display of stables and mangers. You are suing against the stuff that people see in Singapore "Sancho Panza" Pretty fast on the trigger with "you guys." Just what guys do you mean? By "you guys" I mean everyone that gets so enraged by the symbols of Christianity that they cannot even stand symbols that are associated with the symbols of Christianity - I mean commies, militant Jews, radical islamists, Gaia worshippers, the usual. Hindus, animists and ancestor worshippers somehow never have this problem. -- ---------------------- We have the right to defend ourselves and our property, because of the kind of animals that we are.

"brique"
Nobody was 'sueing against the display of trees'. a rabbi threatened to sue if the airport did not also display symbols of his religion alongside the trees. But they were displaying trees, and not a manger, because the manger is a symbol of the Christian religion, and the trees are not. Further, past experience has shown you cannot settle this dispute by concessions. Any concession is met by further demands from additional complainants, for the real grievance is Christmas itself, as several people in this thread have made abundantly clear. -- ---------------------- We have the right to defend ourselves and our property, because of the kind of animals that we are.

It is symbolically linked to the birth of Christ, hence the name of the holiday. |

And if they didn't add his symbol he would sue against the trees. Trees are *not* a religious symbol so the whole thing makes no sense unless you look at the Rabbi as just being a bigot trying to pick a fight. The airport re-acted by removing the trees thus killing the whole suit stone dead, there were now no religous symbols for anyone to demand parity with. Nor were they any to begin with. |

Yet, they can't seem to share the winter holiday season by permitting a one Jewish symbol at the airport. Which "holiday" are you talking about? There is only one *NATIONAL HOLIDAY* and it isn't a Jewish Holiday so why would you put up a Jewish symbol? Putting up a Jewish symbol would be celebrating a holiday that is *PURELY* a religious holiday and not a national holiday and thus would be in clear violation of separation of church and state. |
