roachboy,

One of your easier-to-respond-to posts.

Just because you're paranoid, doesn't mean people aren't out to get you

Guy44,

Since the Equal Access Law was passed, the number of cases of students being allowed to form Bible study classes has gone down, but has not stopped. A simple google search of "banned school bible" turns up plenty.

But this example is just plain silly.

Edit to add:

Lurkette hit it straight on.

There are people to each extreme want to limit what others can read and hear and say.

Personally, I have no problem if someone wishes me a Happy Hannakah, Blessed Ramadan or Happy Kwanzaa. I will in turn continue to wish people a Merry Christmas.

Just because we are a melting pot doesn't mean we should become bland and without individual flavor.
