It was not Bob, It was directed at another "list cop" that must have it his way or no way
at all.

May I also point out that my response was *private* and not to the
List. It has now been brought to the List, and so, I am responding on
the List.
There are many who do not believe that Jesus is the Messiah (or the
Son of God). Some do not even accept the fact of His existence. To
make a statement that "Jesus is better than Santa Claus" is, to me,
insensitive towards those who do not accept the divinity of Jesus.
The Parkinsn List is for Parkinson's disease and those who need
support in dealing with this illness. The United States, in its wisdom,
requires a separation of church and state. We should do no less.
Best,
Bob
