I have always imagined that Paradise would be a kind of library.
Jorge Luis Borges
So have I become your enemy by telling you the truth?

Freedom of Religion - Freedom from Religion - Freedom of Public Display of Religion and Traditions
We establish no religion in this country, nor will we ever. We command no worship. We mandate no belief. But we poison our society when we remove its theological underpinnings. We court corruption when we leave it bereft of belief. All are free to believe or not believe; all are free to practice a faith or not. But those who believe must be free to speak of and act on their belief.
-- Ronald Reagan (Temple Hillel Speech, 1984)

The first Christmas was probably not on December 24th – a cold,
starry night with one particular star shining to guide those to witness the
birth of a child who would be called “Messiah” and “Son of God” – the messenger
of salvation, hope, promise that earthly life is not the end of one’s life, and
the enlightenment of the soul. There is great debate upon the exact date or
even time of the year.

I don’t know who they are
Saying I can’t greet the crowd
The way that I want to;
Can’t say CHRISTMAS out loud.
I walk into a business place
See things that I’d rather not see.
But dare I not say CHRISTMAS
And ask for a “holiday” tree.
What happened to freedom of speech
And living in the land of the free?
How can they take my CHRISTMAS money.
But can’t say MERRY CHRISTMAS to me.
Men and women have given their lives
So we could still go free.
I wonder how they would feel
At saying “HOLIDAY” TREE.
