Attack on Christmas

(Paris, France) The secular attack on the tradition of Christmas is worldwide. Here's an example from France.

A French headmistress who tried to ban Santa Claus out of "respect for different beliefs" has been ordered to ensure the presents get delivered on time in the traditional fashion.

In a letter to parents, the head of the Grand-Clos de Montargis primary school had informed them that: "This year, in order to respect different beliefs and the principle of secular education, Father Christmas will not be coming to school."

A puppet show was proposed as an alternative end-of-term treat for the children of the school in Montargis, south of Paris.

Local authorities became aware and immediately reversed the decision. "Like every year, there will be a Christmas party with a Father Christmas," said the deputy mayor.
