School Bans Christmas Colors?


A school in Florida has not only banned Christmas - but everything associated with the Christian holiday.
Teachers at Heathrow Elementary School have been ordered to banish images of Santa Claus from classrooms - along with traditional Christmas colors like red and green.
"You can't use red and green," one outraged parent told WESH. "It's ridiculous."
The parent, who serves as a volunteer room mother, said she was recently given a list of guidelines that listed the holiday restrictions.
She said the basic theme of the letter was, "We don't want to offend anyone who doesn't believe in Santa Claus or the Christian beliefs."

  This is insanity. The color red is banned from a Florida school. Green too. Apparently, those colors are too closely associated with Christmas according to militant anti-Christians. The reason? “So that "nobody gets offended." Well guess what - this is offensive to all Christians, and this is a predominantly Christian country. But that's the whole point, isn't it now
