      A Christmas Witch in Wisconsin Public School

      Wisconsin Elementary School Changes "Silent Night" to "Cold in the
Night" While Decorating For A Christmas Witch!
      Dear Sara,

       In Dodgeville, Wisconsin, Ridgeway Elementary School's "winter
program" has changed the name of "Silent Night" to "Cold in the Night." Sung
to the tune of "Silent Night," the lyrics include: "Cold in the night, no
one in sight, winter winds whirl and bite, how I wish I were happy and warm,
safe with my family out of the storm."

      The "winter program" included decorating classrooms with Santa Claus,
Kwanza symbols, Menorahs, and Labafana--a Christmas witch!

      Also in Wisconsin, the Glendale-River Hills School District has banned
every Christmas song which has any Christian "motive or theme." But while
banning Christian Christmas songs, the district permits secular holiday
songs as well as songs celebrating Hanukkah. In defending this policy,
Frances Smith, the district administrator, says that the Hanukkah songs are
more cultural than spiritual.

      What these schools are doing to our children is not educating, but
indoctrinating! And they are using Christmas as an excuse. Following the
lead of the National Educational Association, Wisconsin educational leaders
preach tolerance and diversity while being highly intolerant! Most of the
residents of Wisconsin are tolerant, but not their educational leaders.

      Banning nativity scenes. Banning Christmas songs in school. Banning
Christmas in advertising. Calling a Christmas tree a "holiday" tree. Calling
a Christmas parade a holiday parade. Refusing to mention the Reason for the
season. It is time to take a stand for our children, our families, our faith
and our freedom!

      Educational leaders in your state could be the next officials to join
this anti-Christian bigotry parade.

      I urge you to email Wisconsin Governor Gov. Jim Doyle and Wisconsin
State Superintendent Elizabeth Burmaster and ask them to stop this
intolerant anti-Christian bigotry.

      Very important! Please forward this to your family and friends. They
need to be aware of this anti-Christian bigotry.

      Thanks for caring enough to get involved.

      Sincerely,

      Don
