Stout guy in a red suit bears scrutiny, too
Lately, there have been many letters to the editor about the Nativity scene at the Old Lee County Courthouse. Many people have written in against the symbolism of the display. Well, let me chime in.
For those who say the display is an infringement to their beliefs, I say this: What about the belief of our beloved Santa Claus?
Are you seriously going to speak against a display of the true meaning of Christmas, yet stand by while our children attending (public) school are exposed to the story of a fat man in a red suit with white hair, who rides a magic sleigh driven by magical flying reindeer, of whom the leader has a glowing red nose?
