Making Decisions Based on a Survey of 134 people

The UK is really in a heap of trouble, and of course the US is going in that direction, too.

Here's the thing. Try being a Christian in a Muslim country like Pakistan or Iran. Christians, or Jews for that matter, sure don't have positive feelings or self assurance there.

But in England and soon in the UK, god forbid the minorities should not have any self assurance. (I'd say they probably have more than their counterparts in the countries they come from. Sure, there are a few yobbos in the US and UK who might get violent, but that's nothing compared to the institutionalized racism/religion present where they come from!) [And of coure it must be admitted that there are Jews who are also working toward getting Christmas taken out of offices, here in the US. One woman complained - zip all the Christmas decorations were taken down. Indeed, a fried of hers gave her a Christmas card, and instead of saying, "Thanks, but I'm Jewish...I know you didn't know (and no one did, she'd only recently converted) she went to her friend's supervisor and complained! But then, this woman had always been kind of weird.... But she still got her way in the end.]

Story #3: Christmas Trees "Make non-Christians Feel Excluded"

RUSH: From the UK Telegraph: "Christmas Trees 'Make Non-Christians Feel Excluded'." I was wrong, it is religious. "Christmas trees should be removed from public places to avoid making non-Christians feel 'excluded', scientists have suggested. Researchers at Simon Fraser University in Canada, found non-Christians feel less self-assured and have fewer positive feelings if a Christmas tree was in the room. The scientists conducted the study using 77 Christians and 57 non-believers, including Buddhists and Sikhs. The participants did not know the survey was about Christmas, and were asked to fill in questions about themselves both when a 12-inch Christmas tree was in the room and when it was not." Twelve-inch?

"'Non-celebrators' reported fewer positive feelings and less self-assurance in the Christmas room. Christians were mostly cheered by the tree." Who would even think to do this except somebody that is trying to wipe out Christmas? And they say science isn't politicized.
