It is a hollow argument to suggest Christmas is a personal belief and should be celebrated as such solely within one's personal domicile. It is a canard because the surreptitious intent is to have the birth of the Savior eradicated from daily life starting with "His" birth.

The argument offered by a handful who believe in Christmas – but think it wrong to sing hymns and put up Nativity scenes – is as specious as the vacuous position that: "I'm a Christian but think it wrong to share my faith." Suffice it to say that if same is true, you weren't born a believer, so someone obviously shared their faith with you.

My family and I typically spend the holidays in a town where Christmas music and hymns are played daily, well into the night from speakers located along the sidewalks. I am ever vigilant for someone – anyone – suffering from the debilitating or deleterious affects of same. I can report I have yet to observe even one person so affected.

Children, infants, adults – both young and old – cheerfully (or grumpily depending on temperature and/or availability of gift searched for) walk or rush along the crowed sidewalks. The restaurants and shops are filled, but you hear no complaints about having to listen to that "expletive, expletive 'Silent Night,' Oh Little Town of Bethlehem' or 'Away in the Manger.'"
So the logical question would be: Why are public schools, nursing homes, and government agencies, to name but a few, forbidding employees and residents from saying Merry Christmas, singing Christmas songs or having traditional Christmas decorations? Why were teachers and children at "Boulevard Heights Elementary School in Fort Lauderdale, Fla., strictly forbidden to say "Merry Christmas" and instructed to say only "happy holidays?"

The answer is: They do it because they can. They do it because they are confident that individuals, families and employees may be upset at first, but that said insult will very quickly pass. They do it because they believe the public to be fools, easily controlled and even more easily turned away from truth. If there be any doubt, ask yourself: "Do I say Merry Christmas or happy holidays?" Then ask yourself why.
One reason that we now reside in a zeitgeist where good is labeled evil, bad and foolish, while evil and debauchery are trumpeted as good, i.e., wholesome is because the average person allows it. The average person sits back and allows evil free reign. By allowing outside agents (read: public schools and liberal courts) to invalidate the parental and societal structure, a generation of malevolents has been placed in positions (read: public schools, universities and liberal courts) that allow for the perpetuation of same.

These insidious marplots understand there are no consequences for their assaults on society – after all, they are the learned teachers and black-robed high priests. They understand how easy it is to teach a child to disrespect their parents, curse America and change the meaning of the Constitution with a stroke of their pens.
The question that begs answering is: How long will you the public continue to genuflect gratuitously while your rights as a majority are stripped away by a handful? How long will you praise the academics of schools that embrace mandatory homosexual sensitivity and awareness classes, blame whites for today's supposed black condition and indemnify socialist malefactors like Ward Churchill, Michael Eric Dyson and Richard Burt?
How long will you the public continue to allow courts to steal private property from individuals, giving it in turn to those who can make tremendous gain from same? How long will you the public allow liberal courts to tell us we have no right to say "God" in the Pledge of Allegiance and that parents have no say in what their children are taught, no matter how debauched and offensive?
John Dickinson believed that compliance and reason would prevail against England. Thomas Jefferson and Benjamin Franklin knew otherwise. Thus the Declaration of Independence's immediate urgency was to let England know Americans would continue shooting British soldiers.
History has shown us who was right. Will history show that because the public allowed one of Christendom's Highest Holy Days to be stripped away, future generations will have "holiday eggs," "holiday bunnies" and "holiday crosses"; or will the spirit of the bold American who began a nearly forgotten document – "When in the course of human events it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another ..." compel us to take back our country?
