Anyone not understand why the nativity scene should go? I'll be glad to explain.

KNOX COUNTY, Tenn. (WVLT) --*The Freedom from Religion Foundation East Tennessee chapter sent a letter of correspondence to Kelly Drummond with Knox County Schools, copying Knox County Mayor Tim Burchett and Superintendent Bob Thomas. The letter was written in complaint of a Nativity display located at the Andrew Johnson Building on Floor M in front of the elevator.

According to the letter, an anonymous complainant said they felt uncomfortable coming forward because they did not practice Christianity.

"We ask that the employee(s) who placed the display be advised to remove it and be educated on the reasons that such displays in government work areas are neither appropriate nor legal," the letter read.

"Please also train all employees to be alert for and report displays such as this so co-workers of other (or no) religions feel comfortable in your workplace despite differing views," the letter continued. "In this regard we feel that part of your job is to protect those in the minority who may feel the religious climate diminishes their ability to speak for themselves."

The letter, signed by the President of the Freedom from Religion Foundation's East Tennessee chapter, ended with a request for a reply in writing "to inform us how this matter has been addressed so we many follow up with your employee."

This columnist compared atheists requesting removal of the Nativity scene with ISIS.

It's a constitutional violation. Pretty easy stuff that for some reason seems hard for people like you to grasp.

No place for Nativity scene at a public school. That's not an opinion.

wgaf? little sissy's only. i'm not a religious nut but it wouldn't bug me one bit to see some nativity scene at a school. yeah yeah, separation of state and school.

until academia starts living in reality and gets rid of safe spaces and other bs far left ideals then we can discuss nativity scenes on campus'.

i have a couple buddies across the street from my business that are islamic and i visit them almost daily. our interactions are short but nonetheless productive and not filled with hatred in the least. if it was up to you all here on ST i'd be the biggest racist xenophobe ever. poor poor blake.

as well, verses are not the same as a scene of a baby being adored. on the flipside, would the islamic nativity scene be mohammad fucking the child?

That would be the Olangapo nativity scene with Avante.

Well depending on what text you read, the approximate age of Virgin Mary when God raped her was anywhere from 12-14

lmao at god raping anyone... yall are so bitter and for what exactly, the life you were given?

[koriwhat]

btw blake, last time i checked, god isn't a man and only (hu)man rapes. i believe in god but more as the theory of energy/the void/collective consciousness.

yall build the towers and i tear them down. then comes the crybaby condescending remarks by lefty loons like yourself.

I don't care what you believe. I'm just giving you nativity scene background.

[DarrinS]

If you draw a picture of the nativity scene, no one will try to kill you.

I'm put off by the silly Christians that push their bible agendas on the public. If they were to keep it to themselves, I would be extremely indifferent.

[DeadlyDynasty]

I agree, this needs to be addressed immediately before it's too late.

you ok with marketing at all? what clothes do you wear? car? got stickers on anything?

fuck god right but prop up brands? lmao and blake, i know you weren't asking me what i believe in and you were describing the nativity scene in such a naive way. if god is a spirit, the wind between your wings, then how could god rape anyone?

i'm not even religious and no nativity scene upsets me. it's not a big deal.

explain away then since you read more than trump and obviously read the bible. i need to be informed; inform me please.

[spurraider21]

doesn't take much to read more than trump tbh

maybe, maybe not but who really knows? not you nor i. you hang with the dude daily to actually know his routine or his likes and dislikes? speculative wishful thinking because you hate the dude and nothing more to it. no substance for your hatred. just blind hatred. when did that become your thing exactly?

well, he claims he reads the bible every night, and then when reading a passage, read "two Corinthians" :lol... his speaking style also doesn't come across as somebody very well read at all, and his talking points/tweeting points show nothing more than he's a guy that watches a lot of fox news, not somebody who has read anything like rousseau, hobbes... or even kissinger

its no secret that i dislike trump, but i don't think its blind :lol... i think he's a narcissist and an asshole with a very simplistic view on some extremely complex issues, doesn't care about getting facts right, thinks science is fake when he doesn't understand it, and he's enacting policies/making decisions which are going to hurt us in the long run.

maybe we need more simplicity in law... i mean, forever now we have let our borders go to shit while not enforcing our policies/laws. maybe a simplistic solution would be to start upholding those laws instead of making it so damn complex that everyone just throws their hands up and allows for more illegal activity to enter our nation. that's just one issue i can see fixed by simply doing by the book and not turning a blind eye to the issue like past administrations have done.

simple isn't stupid. in most cases it's smart. overthinking sometimes leads to complexity when it is not needed.

as for reading this guy or that guy... you ever read kevin simpson? doubtful, unless you're into javascript programming. i am not one for stories of fiction so i don't read that type of book. i read books that educate me and teach me more than moral "ideals". bet trump could out read you when it comes to the bottom line; stocks, money, etc. should he consider you to be "simple" by that example? different levels my friend. you like what you like and he likes what he likes. doesn't mean he's better or more rounded than you and vice versa.

look at the internet as a whole and tell me who isn't a narcissist these days. you got whores claiming otherwise because they're "models" now because of the internet, you got people flaunting shit on fb & ig that have nothing in real life, etc... no one is who you think they are these days and that's a sad reality but one we all live in now. to get to the top, a little narcissism is needed i think.

you talk about decisions that are going to hurt us... did you have any problems with the past admins decisions that have hurt us?

blind leading the blind.

What is "it" and how is it a Constitutional violation. You offered to explain this, cuck. You're doing a predictably shitty job at it thus far.

They probably hate you, tbh.

Establishment of religion clause in the 1st amendment.

The school district is run by public tax dollar.

sarcasm but you can't see humor when your feelings overpower your rationale. but hey, i don't disregard any notion that they might not like me. they're in business and sometimes in business to get the sale you have to play the part. who knows? all i know is our interactions daily are friendly.

i totally understand your pov. with that said, a nativity scene would still not bug me in the least. what would bug me is required religious studies like they have in private schools. i thoroughly enjoy christmas time, the weather, the songs, etc... takes me back to being a kid when my great grandmother was still around and other family too but whatever.
