Colorado city considers ban on red and green Christmas lights

A Colorado city is considering a plan that one attorney calls the epitome of the war against Christmas.Tonight, the Fort Collins City Council will meet and decide the fate of a task force report that urges the city to decorate with white lights, winter symbols not traditionally associated with any particular holiday, and unadorned garlands of greenery. City staffers are also encouraged to remove ornaments or stars from trees and red ribbons from wreaths.Mat Staver, founder of Liberty Counsel, says the task force is seriously misguided. "I think it's absolutely ridiculous that anyone would consider banning red and green because they are associated with Christmas, because they believe that anything associated with Christmas, being religious, has to be banned," he says. "I think this absurdity really underscores the extent to which this war against Christmas has escalated."The Orlando, Florida-based legal group reports it has issued a letter warning the city council that its censorship of certain Christmas decorations is not well-grounded in legal precedent.In a press release, Staver wonders if the next step will be to ban the giving of gifts because that act is associated with Christmas. "It is sad and unfortunate that some people are intent on eliminating Christmas because of its Christian theme," the attorney states. "People from around the country ought to call the Fort Collins City Council and protest the ridiculous recommendation of the Holiday Display Task Force.”Staver points out that the task force included a representative from the American Civil Liberties Union, but neglected to include the input of any other legal organization that Liberty Counsel insists could have presented a "balancing viewpoint." Meanwhile, the local sheriff reportedly has vowed to decorate a Christmas tree-with multicolored lights-regardless of the council's decision.

PS:I know many people,especially here in America keep the tradition of the christmas tree,and they dismay when they hear these news,but to tell you the truth the so called"christmas tree" is a pagan practice.
It may shock you that I say so,but it is.I know it's like "the christmas tradition" here in America and many people has the best of memories by the christmas tree,opening presents and so on,but the same way the celebration of "EASTER" which derives from the worship and celebration of "ishtar" from babylon,the "tradition" of the tree is not biblical.I'll talk more in further posts.
You can now email me all the hate mail you want.BUT since the Lord Jesus rescued me fron the occult,I don't want to go back there....ever....
One thing is for true,and that's the fact that ANY MENTION of JESUS of CHRISTIANISM or Christian related themes arise a whole lotta strife among folks that don't believe in the God of the Bible.This won't change,on the contrary will increase in the days to come.SO get ready as the "politically corrrect" crowd comes out with a whole bunch of "new kum-bah-yah ideas" to try to APPEASE and NOT OFFEND other "beliefs.....
As in the days of Noah...
