Now...if our neighborhood police suddenly decrees I have to have a nativity scene in my front yard because it's a Christian neighborhood, I think most would agree that's a different story.

No surprise that we agree on this. As a matter of fact, during this season, I say "Merry Christmas" to the cashiers when I'm shopping (even though I am Jewish) just because I am so tired of "Happy Holidays" and all this PC crap <vbg>
