Affirming the rich spiritual and religious history of our Nation's founding and subsequent history and expressing support for designation of the first week in May as "American Religious History Week" for the appreciation of and education on America's history of religious faith.

Recognizing the importance of Christmas and the Christian faith

Resolved, That the House of Representatives--

(1) recognizes the Christian faith as one of the great religions of the world;

(2) expresses continued support for Christians in the United States and worldwide;

(3) acknowledges the international religious and historical importance of Christmas and the Christian faith;

(4) acknowledges and supports the role played by Christians and Christianity in the founding of the United States and in the formation of the western civilization;

(5) rejects bigotry and persecution directed against Christians, both in the United States and worldwide; and

(6) expresses its deepest respect to American Christians and Christians throughout the world.

Good Lord, they have damn near the entire Republican House roster on there as co-sponsors for the Christmas one. A pointless and meaningless pandering exercise. Few people want to be on record as voting against Christmas, after all. Still, a waste of time from all sides.

Whereas the United States Supreme Court has declared throughout the course of our Nation's history that the United States is `a Christian country', `a Christian nation', `a Christian people', `a religious people whose institutions presuppose a Supreme Being', and that `we cannot read into the Bill of Rights a philosophy of hostility to religion';

Well it's not worthless, it's very symbolic. It's like if someone were to erect (haha) a statue of a massive ***** in white house lawn, it tells people about the mental state of those in charge.
