Hillsboro School District in Orgean has band the the decorations and telling of Santa Claus and other Christmas related things. This is because they are worried that it might offend children and families who have different religious beliefs. So at the districts schools they would have door decorating contest and this year that aren't really doing them, because they can't be Christmas related what so ever.
I understand that they are worried to have people offended about Christmas, but everyone celebrates for different reasons. I also think by them doing this I don't think it is fair for those to who are Christian too, because they aren't allowed to do things that represent their religious beliefs because it might offend other religions. This district won't let anyone talk about Santa either which doesn't make sense because it doesn't even really tie in to Christianity. What do you think about this whole not doing anything that has to do with Christmas?

Christmas is just a holiday to most people and is celebrated by many and everyone should know that
ReplyDeleteThat is so sad! Religion had become a big problem around the world and the fact that a father would do something's h a evils as that over religious is terrible.
ReplyDeleteI understand what the district is trying to do, they do not want to cause conflict between religions, but Christians should be able to express themselves with Christmas spirit.
