Frankly I think you missed the point. Primarily; Not the vanishing but the silencing of one group by those who in the name of tolerance are the most intolerant of all, and Secondly; The emptiness that inevitably follows from scooping the spiritual guts out of a society and that we should be careful what we ask for because we just might get it. Finally; a note of optimism....

"What the civil libertarians need to know is that God simply will not be conquered by our puny little outbursts and our juvenile pronouncements. Christmas did not end with the night of Jesus’ birth. In fact, there were those who tried to kill Him then as well. They thought they had succeeded but it was only a momentary illusion. There was a day in which the central figure of Christmas rose again from the dead. That is why death itself is not the greatest tragedy. The greatest tragedy is when we have banished God and are buried by our own questions. Christianity will never be banished to the grave because it follows a Savior who knows the way out. That is the truth for life and it is worth celebrating."

Merry Christmas all!
