I celebrate,observe or at least get into the spirit of every holiday including Kwanzza,Winter/Summer Solstice and 12/26...the birthday of the great American writer Henry Miller.It is a pity that in a polarized country such as ours that battles over religion or even the existence of God has to take on such rediculious extremes.On one side you have the people who want to take "UNDER GOD" out of the Pledge of Alligence and never to be out done by the other side,we have some nut wanting to install a 2 ton monument of the Ten Commandments on Federal property.I think we need to remember that our freedom of religion allowes us to worship as we choose,but it does not allow for anyone to expect that our government become a proving ground or a show case for our beliefs.For that you will have to go to Saudi Arabia or Iran.
