This is part of Fort Collins' art in public places program, and is called 'Source of life.' Bu
t the city's new rules call for a ban on red and green lights at Christmas as being too religious
A special task force in a Colorado city has recommended banning red and green lights at the Christmas holiday because they fall among the items that are too religious for the city to sponsor.
"Some symbols, even though the Supreme Court has declared that in many contexts they are secular symbols, often still send a message to some members of the community that they and their traditions are not valued and not wanted. We don't want to send that message," Seth Anthony, a spokesman for the committee, told the Fort Collins, Colo., Coloradoan.
He said the recommended language does not specifically address Christmas trees by name, but the consensus was that they would not fall within acceptable decorations.
What will be allowed are white lights and "secular" symbols not associated "with any particular holiday" such as icicles, unadorned greenery and snowflakes, the task force said.

One wise citizen questioned whether all city offices will remain open on Christmas Day displaying just the overhead white lights since it is purely a religious day that city government reports not everybody believes in. Where is that great 'Silent Majority' we used to hear so much about a few years ago? Grab those pitchforks, torches and storm the politically correct barricades. Or at least pick up those pens, hit those PC keyboards and pick up those telephones folks.........
