19. It is one thing for individuals to say it but quite another for the
government/school to do it. Like for instance a nativity scene or a huge banner proclaiming religious expression. I know a lot of people don/t even realize Christmas is a religious holiday or that Merry Christmas is a religious expression but it is and as a secular nation our government should not express religious sentiments....individuals now that is an entirely different story. The government according to the constitution can not stop a person from expressing their beliefs as long as it is expressed as an individual and not as a representative of government...
