The phrase "Merry Christmas" is removed from the songs in most public schools. Christmas carols banned at school events. A religious-themed float denied entry in a local parade.
Do you think this is right? I guess this stands with the debate of having religion with schools. May I add, I don't understand why they would, since we seem to have God on everything else. (i.e., on our dollar bills it even says, In God We Trust).

QUOTE This is a christmas carol banned. i'm bolding offensive parts. "Silent night, holy night All is calm, all is bright Round yon Virgin Mother and Child Holy Infant so tender and mild Sleep in heavenly peace Sleep in heavenly peace Silent night, holy night! Shepherds quake at the sight Glories stream from heaven afar Heavenly hosts sing Alleluia! Christ, the Saviour is born Christ, the Saviour is born Silent night, holy night Son of God, love's pure light Radiant beams from Thy holy face With the dawn of redeeming grace Jesus, Lord, at Thy birth Jesus, Lord, at Thy birth " now tell me this is a purely holiday song, with nothing to do with christianity or promoting jesus. I dont think its "a purely holiday song" I think its a purely Christmas song. |
