city bans Santa - religious

[6days]

The city of Ormiston in Alberta Canada has banned Santa Claus since it is representative of the religion of secularism. City mayor Bill Lamberton has forbidden all other religious symbols also, and in recent years nativity scenes were outlawed.

The mythical city of Ormiston, made national headlinea 3 years ago when librarian Judy Gieni was jailed 5 days for defying the law by placing a christmas card on her desk with the nativity scene on its cover.

Do you think the city of Ormiston, is being too politically correct? Is it ok for this city to ban all Santa displays?

No. Santa isn't a religious symbol, he's a symbol of commerce wrapped in good feeling, like one of those Hallmark card commercials. And are we to infer from this that Ormiston is not in a "dry" county? lain:

Santa is also banned from eternal life as are all his adherents

I think it happened right after the town barber got his liquor license. lain: Then the "Stocking Purges" began. Brutal, cold winter that year.

Bah Humbug!

Bah Humbug!

Nope. They even outlawed the Bah Humburgers at Nick's place and made him change his suspicious name...also, flowing white beards have been forbidden and a monthly shave is now a part of the city ordinance...male or female (and there was some resistance from the P.E. teachers union on that one, I can tell you). lain:

Mulled wine, heavy on the cinnamon and light on the cloves. Just a guess, mind you.

Silly rabbi, Santa is for kids.

And who doesn't like bunnies? Want me to tell you about them? Good. Now look off over there while I do. Ready?

A mythical city banned a mythical Santa. If I were a mythical person, I'd be furious!

How else are we going to separate state and religion? We know better not to follow man made traditions invented by the catholics thats not backed by the bible. Public business serves the unregerates as well. We should respect God's personal choosing of his people. There is a reason why he didn't choose some and the unregerates also live in America among his people. We should praise God knows best but most self claimed christians wants to tell God what to do even though they don't see nor hear him.
