Yes, Virginia, there is a war on Christmas. It's the
secularization of America's favorite holiday and the ever-stronger
push toward a neutered "holiday" season so that non-Christians
won't be even the slightest bit offended.
Traditionalists get upset when they're told - more and more these
days - that celebrating Christmas in any public way is a violation
of church and state separation. That is certainly not what the
Founders intended when they wrote, "Congress shall make no law
respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free
exercise thereof."
John Gibson, a popular anchor for the Fox News Channel, has been
digging up evidence about the liberal activists, lawyers,
politicians, educators, and media people who are leading the war on
Christmas. And he reveals that the situation is worse than you can
imagine. Millions of Americans are starting to fight back against
the secularist forces and against local officials who would rather
surrender than be seen as politically incorrect. Gibson shows
readers how they can help save Christmas from being twisted beyond
recognition.
John Gibson is the host of The Big Story
on Fox News
