Recently, there is a notion by some that Christmas is under attack. Most people dismiss this as being non-sense. How can this be? We are a Christian nation, about 80% are Christians and our nation is founded on Judeo-Christian philosophy. Here are some examples that I have found in current events that proves otherwise.

One can see where it's going here in Europe;
Not many speak up though.
