I doubt you'd get a large number of Christian Churches to participate in the parade. Although the Non Profit group that denied the Faith Bible Church the right to participate may have opened up a can of worms, and angered enough people to create a backlash. Maybe they'll be inundated with requests by Christian organizations next year on principle. I don't recall Christians of varying denominations in America in modern times organizing together as one in any kind of joint effort, this might be an incentive.

The church I attended as a child was lesson oriented. I could see floats with a Sunday School theme. Floats with the Nativity scene. I can even see a float made entirely of flowers that represent the Ten Commandments. But so what? Those are all representative of the Christian faith.

Would a float full of Nuns offend too many people? And where is it written that we have a right not to be offended by individuals or organizations of faith?
