In the Godly city of Philadelphia (aka "the city of brotherly love"), a group of Darwinista radicals have launched a scheme to eradicate Jesus' Birthday from the calendar forever. This story has True Christians™ alarmed up and down America.

Atheists to erect holiday display
FREETHOUGHT SOCIETY SCHEDULES CEREMONY FOR 5 P.M. SATURDAY

WEST CHESTER — For the first time a regional atheist group will display a holiday tree on the Chester County Courthouse lawn during the winter holidays, potentially setting a seasonal model for other communities.

County commissioners have allowed groups to display a Christmas tree and menorah on the lawn. But last year, The Freethought Society of Greater Philadelphia, an atheist group, asked the commissioners to either let any group set up a seasonal holiday display or ban the displays entirely.

This fall, the commissioners approved a policy that allows any group to put up a seasonal display if it meets design, insurance and safety requirements.

“This is a very rewarding step in our citizenry of Chester County, where we are now being recognized as an integral part of the community.

And it makes us feel like whole citizens to be able to participate in this way,” said Margaret Downey, president of the Freethought Society.

The group’s display, “The Tree of Knowledge,” will include a 15-foot evergreen with color copies of book covers as decorations. Some of the book covers will include the Holy Bible, the Quran, “Ethics Without God,” “Why I Am Not a Christian,” and “Freethinkers: A History of American Secularism.”

Downey said she hopes the Chester County display will be a catalyst for displays across the nation. And she said her priority will be displaying a similar tree in Philadelphia next year.

“If this works here, we’re going to encourage other Freethought groups to do the same,” Downey said.

The county received four applications, and all were approved. Applicants had to pitch design ideas that would not give the impression the county was endorsing a particular religion.

In addition to “The Tree of Knowledge,” the courthouse lawn will feature a Christmas tree, a menorah and a crèche this year.

The Freethought Society will hold a tree ceremony at 5 p.m. Saturday at the courthouse.

I find it particularly appalling that these monkey-loving heathens saw fit to mock God by displaying the Holy Bible on such an obviously farcical tree, right alongside the kooran. As if they were equal somehow!
