I really enjoyed reading this piece by the excellent columnist Kathleen Parker. And probably needless to say, I could agree with her more.
This spirit of mutual respect and generosity is also finding expression among Muslims. Waleed Aly, a lawyer in Melbourne, Australia, and member of the Islamic Council of Victoria, has written that he is more offended by efforts to restrain religious expression than he is by nativity scenes.
“This is where political correctness loses the plot,” he wrote. “What purports to inspire tolerance instead inspires hostility and intolerance. … Denying the Christianity in Christmas or, worse, doing away with it altogether helps no one. This is not multiculturalism. It is anti-culturalism.”
