Here 'ya go..... The fact that it has lost it's religious meaning does not detract from the fact that Christmas is still a religious holiday which is not celebrated by non-Christians.

Exactly. Celebrate as they see fit in private or a house of worship. Reindeer are OK. They're non-sectarian. Santa, though, represents Christmas.

The difference is that people have the freedom to listen to whatever music they choose to on their radio. It's different when someone walks into the Department of Motor Vehicles because they have to and get bombarded with Christmas music.

As far as the "blaring" of offensive music from radios goes, most municipalities have ordinances against excessive "blaring", because such noise interefers with the peace and tranquility of others. And I support such ordinances.

So do I. But there's a huge difference between learning about other religions in an academic sense and what we're talking about here.

Because they have no choice. And the words themselves do not promote one specific religion over another. All religions, I think, have their "God".

Again, this is not about being politically correct. It's about the government's "promotion", if you will, of Christianity.

Not much i can say about that.

I agree. Nothing wrong, as I said above, with learning about other religions. But that's not the issue here.

I don't think kids should be singing Christmas Carols in public schools.

And it's dreidel, BTW. :p
