I was listening to a local Christian radio station the other day and they were talking about a government building that put out Christmas items. They had the nativity scene but MISSING Mary, Joseph and baby Jesus. After a huge fuss they put them back in saying they didn't want to offend non Christians celebrating Christmas, so they ended up putting out a reindeer nearby the nativity scene for non Christians celebrating Christmas. A lawyer then made a comment saying legally if a government place puts out a nativity scene to keep out of trouble they have to include Santa, a snowman, etc.

This story got me thinking. How can people who are Non Christians celebrate Christmas? Isn't the celebrating Christmas the celebration of the birth of Jesus? Isn't that what they day is for? It may not be the day he was born, but it is the day set aside to give praise and remember Jesus birth. I just don't understand why some Non Christians want to take Jesus out of our holiday. If they are getting offended at the site of Jesus or anything relating to religion they need to understand this is what Christmas is about.

The commercialized comments that everyone should be allowed to celebrate Christmas bother me, it got me thinking a lot about this.  I don't celebrate Kwanzaa or Hanuka, I don't ask the people who do to take their festive things down so I wont be offended. When I see their items of celebration I am happy for them.

So what is it the sudden, and by sudden its been big the last few years to be anti Christian. I just don't get it. Feel free to add your thoughts. Its just mind numbing to me how closed minded people can be to something they don't agree with. I have seen more hate from people who are anti Christian, than Christians  trying to save people.
