this video just oozes self-righteousness

"I don't even know what Diwali is." What great reporting. They just want to listen to their side of the story and not care about anyone else's opinions.

@AvalonDraconis again, I agree. It's just that Christmas, as it is celebrated today, has little to do with religion IMO. It's about something else entirely (money mostly), which is why I think there are bigger fish to fry than giving a shit about Christmas in classrooms, those bigger fish would be the things you listed above. My whole point is that there is a difference between blinking lights and a Christmas tree and teaching Creationism as fact in a classroom..

@Shatonmedeek The problem is that many people *do* care - mostly Christians by the way. There is an active movement going on to force Christianity back into schools and into laws, preventing many freedoms we enjoy today. Teaching creationism as fact, outlawing homosexuality and abortion, returning women to "the kitchen", revoking civil rights... It's maddening. So that is why I care. I don't want religious zealots turning the US in a theocracy.

@AvalonDraconis I agree fully with no teacher led religious activities or anything promoted over anything else, it's just that why even care? I believe whatever I want to believe and everyone else can do the same, if there is a Christmas tree in my classroom it doesn't offend me, because if I let it, I would have just let a tree with a bunch of hanging shit on it offend me regardless if you interpret it to represent some religion.

I wouldn't be surprised if the parents against santa were actually Christians. But we all know Fox lies and distorts everything.

@Shatonmedeek There should be no religion in schools, other than being taught in a history class. To promote one religion over another promotes discrimination and is against the constitution. Personal celebrations are fine, just like personal prayers. But no teacher or school led religious activities.

The reporter claims to be "helping out the kids". What exactly is he doing to make that happen?
