War on Christmas marches on By William Donohue
As the following examples indicate, the war on Christmas is not over:
After one person complained about a nativity scene in Shawnee State Park in Ohio, the state parks’ chief ordered a ban on crèches from all parks. It took the governor to overturn this decision. In Wesley Chapel, Florida, Jesus was banned from a holiday display. The mayor of Cranston, Rhode Island censored all religious displays.
Government officials in Tehama County, California tried to ban Santa in office displays but had to reverse their decision after a protest. A nativity scene in Olean, New York was removed from the City Hall lawn after Wiccans placed the pentacle alongside it. A crèche was banned from Triangle Park in Manistique, Michigan.
