POPS"Happy Holidays" = Mortgage Meltdown
I read this article several times, and still can't figure out the writer's logic. He does, of course, raise the old canard about not being able to have morality without religion (or a particular religion) but how he gets across this big non sequitur is beyond me. Also from the source: "Responsibility and restraint are moral sentiments. Remorse is a product of conscience. None of these grow on trees. Each must be learned, taught, passed down. And so we come back to the disappearance of Merry Christmas...Northerners and atheists who vilify Southern evangelicals are throwing out nurturers of useful virtue with the bathwater of obnoxious political opinions. The point for a healthy society of commerce and politics is not that religion saves, but that it keeps most of the players inside the chalk lines. We are erasing the chalk lines." He seems to be saying that religion doesn't save but without it we are doomed. By citing Christmas, he is narrowing it down to one religion.
