Secular extremists say that there is no War on Christmas and ridicule Fox
News' John Gibson for writing The War on Christmas: How the Liberal Plot to
Ban the Sacred Christian Holiday Is Worse Than You Thought. See John Gibson
Is Right About The War on Christmas Christmas

They are lying, of course. Secular extremists have been working to restrict
the free exercise of religion guaranteed by the First Amendment since the
First Amendment was adopted and to rewrite American history to suit
themselves. Without significant success until 1947, when the United States
Supreme Court outrageously opined that the First Amendment mandates
governmental neutrality between religious and irreligion (or nonreligion)
and bans governmental support for religion generally.

.. . . You can't understand a phrase such as "Congress shall make no law
respecting an establishment of religion" by syllogistic reasoning. Words
take their meaning from social as well as textual contexts, which is why "a
page of history is worth a volume of logic." New York Trust Co. v. Eisner,
256 U.S. 345, 349, 41 S.Ct. 506, 507, 65 L.Ed. 963 (1921) (Holmes, J.).
