When the senior class at a California high school was told it could not paint a Nativity scene on a window, they called their administration’s obtuse left-wing ideology to task… and won.
Senior class president Becky James and her classmates designed a simple Nativity set painting for a small window at the entrance of the school. However, the design was not approved.
Student body President and future Republican Jessica Hofer, apparently tired of being force fed liberal compost every day, provided the school’s principal a copy of a 1989 Supreme Court ruling that allows student initiated free expression of religion at school
"I thought that the ruling of no Nativity set was unfair, especially when one class had 'Happy Kwanzaa' approved and another class a Menorah," Hofer said. "To say you can't have a Christian symbol at Christmas but allow other religious symbols is discrimination."
"Our First Amendment rights give us freedom of religion, not freedom from religion," she continued. "Our nation was founded on Christian values and the Ten Commandments are the basis for our law, I think our schools and society misunderstand the First Amendment. The separation of church and state is not mentioned by our founding fathers but we hear it repeated so many times that people begin to believe it."
Hofer said the ACLU has done a good job of changing America's view with law suits. "They have made things illegal that should not be illegal," she said.
Be still my beating heart. She’s the daughter I never had.

Claremont Institute's Thomas Kranawitter criticizes multiculturism as the official state religion in "The Intellectual Errors and Political Dangers of Multiculturalism."
Very interesting Anonymous. Do I know you, ‘cause I’m feeling myself strangely attracted to you. It is quite ironic that multiculturalism claims to tell us something true about the human world, yet it is founded upon the denial that objective truth is possible, and particularly Krannawitter’s argument that multiculturalism is, itself, not multicultural. Please tell me more on how diversity and non-judgmentalism led to the decay of Western philosophy.
