hello inonesco...

may i call you ion?

<g>


If they share them in a forum where lots of other people are sharing their religions, no problem.

If you want to "share" all by yourself, with no one else on the stage, I call that egotistical and not very attractive.


in the past, i really had not given this much thought....

when my children were in school and participated in the ubiquitous christmas pageants and carols and plays, i did not find it offensive, being a-religious, yet not hostile to the concept...

but more and more, upon reflection...

i think i agree with you (assuming you are saying the religion specific nature of 'christmas' celebrations have no place in publicly subsidized venues)

i think it becomes a government sponsored endeavor and therefore a government sanctioned 'religious' exercise

and despite the historical precedent...

it could very well be that such was (at the time) merely a subsequence to the majority

and we are, after all

a republic
