I am reading in the news today about a dispute in a courthouse where a "Christmas Tree" (or "Holiday Tree" for those more sensitive to this issue) has been removed from its lobby as it is considered a religious icon of some sorts, obviously associated with Christianity. I know that there are similar issues happening all across North America.

Has any person seriously ever felt that their religious freedoms have been threatened by a pine tree with pretty lights on it? What's next, no Santa's in the malls? I'm not a particularly religious person, but if countries are expected to respect religious ideals from all denominations, then why must we sacrifice our traditions in the name of religious freedom?

Merry Christmas..sorry I mean "Happy Holiday"

Can some one understands this circle.
Why do some people have to die while they went to bed and slept and never wake up ?
And why do some people have to lie on a hospital bed for 2months going through the unbearable pains and wounds and surgeries, operations and finally they have to wait to die ?

If not, then how do you explain "Chosen" peoples? what does that mean? to be God's Chosen people? Or the term "Saved" for that matter? aren't these terms just arrogance?

Satan was the master of deceipt! Sin entered the world through Satan's rebellion! Satan was in the garden of Eden,and tricked,taught wrong,tempted,took Adam and Eve from the garden,put up a wall of fire,so they could not return! Satan was responsible for sin entering the world, and it was through him! Satan was condemned,not mankind,by God Almighty to the Lake of Fire! It was Satan posing as Jesus to Luke and the Apostles at the Last Supper! The wages of sin is death,even for angels! Jesus did not sin, and could not be tempted in the wilderness,after fasting 40 days and nights! Jesus told Satan to go, and he had a destination,to the cross,to die,and to hell! How do you think Satan went to hell? Do you think anyone could kill Jesus,without sin! Never,not possible,without sin Jesus could not die,and didn't need to die,not for a second! Satan had the power to deceive all!Satan's death was the atonement for all the sins of this world! Jesus rolled away the stone,Arch Angel Michael took him

I was told that St Nicolas who was born in Turkey was informed one day of a friends daughters who were going to prostitute themselves in order to support themselves as they had no dowry.

St Nicolas found out and one night he crept upto the window and left a gift of gold so they would not have to do that. Sounds beleivable to me.

General John J. Pershing effectively discouraged Muslim terrorists in the Philippines by killing them and burying their bodies with pigs.

If we put a baby pig on every airline flight, then all suicide terrorists would abort their missions as they would not want their souls to go to hell. Additionally, if we drop shipped 100,000 pigs into Gaza, I think our recon and assault efforts may be more successful. Apparently Muslims dislike the very sight of pigs A LOT!

They are also adamantly opposed to alcohol; thus, we spike their water supply with a few thousand gallons of moonshine, get them drunk and turn the pigs loose. The war would be over in a weekend.

In the film "The Real Glory," Dr. Bill Canavan, an American Army doctor in 1906 Manila "tries to protect the native population from ruthless invaders" (i.e., "Muslim fanatics"). At one point in the film, the Dr. Canavan character drapes a captured Muslim in a pigskin and proclaims that now all slain Muslim rebels will go to hell.
