Harman will ban Christmas, bishops warn
the would-be Grinch, also known as the beleaguered equalities minister, is being blamed by Roman Catholic clergy worried they will be forced to cancel Christian celebrations for fear of offending other cultures.
"Under existing legislation, we have seen the development of a risk-averse culture with outcomes as ridiculous as reports of a local authority instructing tenants to take down Christmas lights in case they might offend Muslim neighbours, or of authorities removing the word Christmas out of cultural sensitivity to everyone except Christians.

Re: Harman will ban Christmas, bishops warn
Are we forgetting that no Christian celebrations have actually been canceled "in case it offends other religions"?

The Catholic Church need to sort out their problems before they start worrying about this.
