There’s a new freedom for Americans to celebrate Christmas this year with religious symbols, from Nativities to stars to red and green decorations and more, according to a prominent legal team that has fought for years for those rights.
It’s because the so-called “Lemon test” now is gone from American jurisprudence.
Mat Staver, the chief for Liberty Counsel, explained in an online posting, “The First Amendment protects religious viewpoints from being censored by the government. Religious symbols and displays consistent with the Christmas holiday season are appropriate and constitutional on public property, including in public schools.
