That is not true. The Reverends Macys, Dillards, and Nordstroms and their clergy of Santa Clauses have shown us the way and the light of materialism. They want the light and the truth to reach everyone so now we must see it as the Winter Holiday. Now no one diety can get in the way of the higher calling of materialism. What is more Christian than that? Including everyone is what modern Christianity is all about! :rolleyes:

I meant there IS one but I thought for some reason they weren't going to light it...but they are. The menorah is on the Ellipse closer to Constitution Avenue, in between the National Christmas Tree and Const. Ave.

I'd bet yes. And a menorrah.

What would be the outcry from the Jewish side if the menorrah was called "holiday candlestick" so as not to impose a religious view on people? A Christmas tree is a christmas tree, if you don't like it, don't put one up. But don't stop the majority from celebrating our holidays.

They're not stopping you from celebrating your holiday. Do you normally open presents on the capital lawn?

Gee.. I forgot my :sarcasm: symbol.
Although I thought it was obvious.


Oh well, at least my Karma page has lots of red to offset the green and it looks like it has the Christmas Spirit.



Pardon me! Holiday Spirit. :biggrin:

So would we have to have a Chrismas tree if we had a Jewish Pres?

Why not?

But if they put up a menorah and a Star of David, I'd think they were NUTS if they called it a "holiiday" star and a "holiday" candleabra. How stupid would THAT be?
