In Denver, you cannot say Merry Christmas at a Christmastime event.

From Worldnet Daily

Christmastime event is no-Christian zone: Santa, 'holy homosexuals' OK for parade, but no floats with direct religious themes.

In the latest skirmish over Christmas in America, a Christian group is not allowed to participate in Denver's annual Parade of Lights, because church members sought to sing yuletide hymns and proclaim a "Merry Christmas" message on their float.

However, the event, now in its 30th year, will include homosexual American Indians, Kung Fu artisans, belly dancers and, of course, Santa Claus.

What is this world coming to! A religious Holiday has gotten so watered down that now people are not allowed to express their religious beliefs at a public event. We are guaranteed freedom of religion and speech, but somehow it's okay to be silenced? Yet another reason I support the Alliance Defense Fund. Next thing you know people will try to ban the Declaration of Independece. Oh wait, they already are...

And I pray that you, being rooted and established in love, may have power, together with all the saints, to grasp how wide and long and high and deep is the love of Christ, and to know this love that surpasses knowledge -- that you may be filled to the measure of all the fullness of God.
