Wacky woke mayor of Mullins, South Carolina (where there's a Christian church on every corner), Miko Pickett, demanded the removal of a nativity scene as part of a marketplace Christmas decoration, because it violated "separation of church and state." (of which there is not a word of in the Constitution).
The Mullins Beautification Committee spent two weeks in late November getting everything ready for the marketplace's first Christmas season, paying for decorations out of their own pockets. They added one more item to complete the scene: a modest three-by-four-foot Nativity display showing the birth of Jesus Christ.
Woke mayor, supported by a few equally wokey city councilmembers, insisted the nativity scene must go. The Committee held firm and refused to remove the display. Good for them/
This seems to be another unpleasant doing of the left, as it digs its unapproval hole deeper & deeper every time they open their mouths.
Left-wing churches in Massachusetts and Illinois are staging "protest Nativities" showing ICE agents arresting the Holy Family — grotesque political stunts that use the birth of Christ to attack Trump's border enforcement.
In Ohio, city officials blocked a private citizen from setting up a live Nativity scene on public property, despite allowing other forms of public expression on the same veteran's green.
The attacks on Christian symbols accelerate every December while officials bend over backward accommodating every other religious tradition. You want a menorah in the town square? No problem. Kwanzaa display at city hall? Go right ahead. But put up a Nativity scene celebrating the birth of Jesus Christ in a town where churches sit on every corner? Suddenly government lawyers discover the "separation of church and state", that doesn't exist anywhere in the Constitution.
