When a Catholic organization displayed a Christmas billboard criticizing atheists for commemorating the winter solstice, it caused a stir.
The Catholic League of Wisconsin put up the sign, which said that Christians were the only ones entitled to the winter vacation. It says, “This is our season, not yours.”
It reads, “Atheists strike out at Christmas,” and is on display close to Madison, Wisconsin. Winter Solstice celebrations are a kid’s game.
