QUOTE So we're a Christian a nation founded on freedom of religion? And those damn Muslims should know that this is a Christan nation should convert to Christianity since we're a Christian nation, or just suck it up and quit complaining? Actually they should suck it up. Celebrating a Christian holiday does not prevent or interfere with Muslims ability to practice their religion no more than Hanukkah interferes with my ability to practice my faith. They're just jealous or miss home or both. Another thing I don't understand is why Christmas is a bother to atheists. You don't have to celebrate Christmas if you don't want and can keep on not believing as far as I'm concerned but don't take my right away just because you don't believe.
It's wrong for taxpayer dollars to be spent on any religion.. We live in a country that was founded on freedom of religion for a reason..
The decorations on Broadway Ave and Main St in December celebrate our freedoms as Americans to believe in a higher power or not..
Happy Holidays..

I can't speak for atheists, but I'm offended when government gives special treatment to one religion based on that religion being practiced by a majority of Americans.
You republitards are so short sighted that it doesn't occur to you that someday Christianity might not be the majority religion in this country.
How would you feel if we had Muslim only holidays in government and Dec. 25th was just a normal workday?

I'm just curious, does the City of Albert Lea or Freeborn County spend taxpayer dollars on fireworks for the 4th of July?
I would think that the sacrifice by Americans for Independence from authoritarian British rule and the future of the US Constitution would be celebrated with taxpayer dollars.. Instead we have beggars every year pleading for money on the corners of Broadway and Main so we can have fireworks..
The Freeborn County Chamber of Commerce, KATE Radio, Freeborn County and the City of Albert Lea should be ashamed..
