[QUOTE="moreluck, post: 1062374, member: 1246"] Baby Jesus in the closet????? I thought that stuff was relevent now. Our Judeo-Christian heritage continues to circle the drain. Via Fox News: [INDENT]Frosty the Snowman is there — and so is Santa Claus. But the Baby Jesus is stuffed inside a closet at Cottondale Elementary School — leaving many residents of this small town in the Florida panhandle outraged. The Nativity scene had been a part of the school’s holiday lawn decorations for years. But this year the yuletide display is strictly secular. [B]Principal Brenda Jones told television station WJHG the decision to keep Baby Jesus in the closet came after an official with the Dept. of Education dropped by to discuss the separation of church and state. [/B] “The Dept. of Education came in and talked to us about the legalities of religion in the school systems and the separation of the two,” Jones told the television station. In an attempt to be fair to everyone, the principal said, “We decided that we would just not put the Nativity scene out on campus.” [/INDENT] [/QUOTE]
