Public displays of religious symbols
I think displays of religious symbols on public property during the holiday season is ok. I think that Americans today are too concerned with being politically correct that they think they cannot ever mention religion so that the don't offend anyone else. Really I think anyone and everyone should have the freedom to display their religion privately or publicly. I think that the key to having religious symbols displayed publicly is that people need to be respectful of other's beliefs and realize they they have just as much a right to public display their personal beliefs. I think the whole idea of religious symbols not be allowed to be publicly displayed during the holidays really illustrates how much today's culture has forgotten about the true meaning of all the holidays that are celebrated. Without religion these holidays wouldn't exist, and without remembering and celebrating the religious symbols of the holiday, your not truly celebrating the holiday at all.

I totally agree with you. As long as everyone is being respectful of other religions, I don't see any issues with religious displays. I think people need to remember what the holiday season is all about.
