Al, interesting that the Civil Liberties Union wants to sue local townships and municipalities for publically presenting nativity scenes.

Clearly, they are very worried that religious activity of any sort, especially when promoted by municipal or state agencies, could impact on their civil liberties.

Strangely enough, non-religion has always been viewed as a negative, ie no religion and therefore no interest in religion, but what I see happening is that atheism is also becoming "fundamentalist" and militant in that those who do not believe now see the promotion of any form of religion as a trespass on their turf and their freedom to be irreligious.

By the way, if you will please accept it being said by a non-believer, Merry Christmas.
