How did you manage to extrapolate my comments about the CP as having anything to do with Christmas decorations? Or that I was somehow against local control? It would go against my Libertarian values to do so.
My comments had to do with the CP attempting to establish law/public policy based on ancient Hebrew scribblings in a Diety handbook similar to how the Taliban established law in Afghanistan based on their Diety handbook.
Our govt is secular for a reason. Just because individuals have the right to worship/believe as their conscience sees fit does not give those same individuals the right to impose those beliefs on the rest of us through the legislative process.
Religion is an individual relationship between the individual and the invisible supreme being of their choice, not a vehicle for public policy.
The wall separating church from state would get knocked down if the CP had its way and soon after other religious beliefs/practices eventually would no longer be tolorated.
White Horseradish, I stand corrected. Totalitarian is a more accurate term.
