Christmas: the tyranny of the majority

[nutshell]

Freedom OF Religion does not confer the right to impose a religion on others.

Ok then. Good for you.

Absolutely. I only chose those examples because I was thinking about what other kinds of religious music might be played at this time of year.

Sorry - I didn't mean to pick on you specifically. You just reminded me of a trend that I've seen where our "secular" culture doesn't generally care a lick about religious festivals unless they happen in December. It's only in the last year or two that I've started to hear news anchors wish people a happy Holi, Diwali, Eid or Yom Kippur, but still to a large degree, Christianity is the yardstick by which religions are measured in our society.

Christianity is the yardstick by which religions are measured in our society.

And thats why there are so many atheists. Also Islam seems to be a new stick too, that makes it even worse.

Hinduism is the future my people!!!
