What if they gave a war . . .

Rats! It's two days until Christmas and I haven't lobbed a single grenade in the War Against Christmas. The Evil Atheist Cabal controlling America will certainly take me to task over my failure.

In the meantime, check out this summary at Atheist Revolution of the battle for souls in the Washington State House. It's interesting reading if you really think that Atheists are causing problems.

At first, nobody objected to the "holiday tree" erected in the Washington State Capitol. However, a handful of thin-skinned Christians soon decided that using the more inclusive term "holiday" was a blow to their preferred religion. They requested the addition of a nativity scene, and with the help of a lawsuit filed last year by the Alliance Defense Fund, their request was granted this year.

The thing is, Washington State recognized that the only legal way to permit a nativity display in a public building would be to permit all other groups to add their own displays. So, in getting their nativity scene, the Christians opened the door to virtually any other sort of display. Washington State deserves credit for understanding the implications of the Establishment Clause.
...
Now a Festivus pole is joining the display, and Westboro Baptist is seeking to add a bizarre Christian extremist display. What will be next? I have no idea.

Way to go Christians!
