So this is Christmas

We have recently been told that in New York it is politically incorrect to wish Merry Christmas. Expressions like "Season's Greetings" and "Happy Holidays" are preferred, trying not to offend anyone because of his/her religious beliefs. We ignore whether this practice is extensive to the rest of America.

In Spain, there are discussions right now about keeping catholic traditions. Nativity scenes, religious symbols... have been traditionally inserted not only in churches or private houses, but also in streets and public buildings.

Generalizing: socialists (governing since 2004) want to keep religion as something private. Conservatives (main opposition) believe that prohibiting catholic practices in public is nonsense.

The case at hand: a school professor in a little city throwed to the trashcan a 'nativity scene' made by pupils.

Our impression: we just wish that neither the symbols nor the repression were payed with our taxes.

Meanwhile, ¡Happy Holidays everyone!
