Winning the War on Christmas

According to a report by ABC News, Christians have won a few significant battles in the current war against Christmas. Macy’s Department Store no longer advertises ‘Happy Holidays’ but instead ‘Merry Christmas’, Lowe’s stopped selling ‘holiday trees’ and now sells only Christmas trees and both Capitol Hill in Washington DC and Boston, Massachusetts have renamed their ‘holiday trees’ Christmas trees.

However, this little blurb in the entire article stuck out in my mind the most …

Critics say putting together an armada of Christian attorneys is likely a publicity stunt. If they sued Boston over the name of its tree, they'd likely lose because governments can call their trees whatever they want.

Let’s get things straight here – just because the government (not just the United States but any world government) has the power to do something does not automatically make it right. Renaming a Christmas tree a ‘holiday tree’ is one of the most idiotic, asinine appeals to the PC-crowd in this country that I have ever heard of.
