Ah, December. That marvelous holiday month, when Jews and Christians celebrate joyous holidays.

Of course it’s also the season when those who loathe religion spring into action. This is their moment too.

This year’s crop of religion haters is especially ugly.

According to The New York Post, Harvard University officials - who have done almost nothing to protect Jewish students who were threatened and harassed by pro-Hamas radicals - told a rabbi that he could light a menorah on campus, but warned him to take it down and hide it at night, lest those who hate Jews vandalize it.

“On our campus in the shadow of Widener Library, we in the Jewish community are instructed, ‘We’ll let you have the menorah, you made your point, OK. Pack it up, don’t leave it out overnight because there will be criminal activity we fear and it won’t look good’,” Rabbi Hirschy Zarchi said at a Hanukkah lighting Wednesday night.

Zarchi, the founder and president of Harvard Chabad, said the university has asked the group to take in the menorah each night since the first Hanukkah lighting on campus. 

And in the Iowa State House last week, The Satanic Temple erected an altar to satan alongside a nativity and menorah, claiming they had a right under the First Amendment to slap their hideous satan-worshiping abomination alongside the religious ones.

As if THAT was what the Founders had in mind when they penned the founding documents that established  America’s principle of freedom of worship.

A Navy vet and devout Christian beheaded the statue of satan and knocked down the altar before turning himself in to authorities. The man has been charged with a misdemeanor criminal mischief. 

In Hanover County, a parent has objected to the Bible being in the school library because of the stories contained therein. 

You couldn’t make this garbage up.

More madness in Fairfax County - where else? - where several school board members, including the chair, mocked those who take the oath of office with their hand on a Bible, Koran or other holy book by pledging their oaths on stacks of secular books or porn. The Washington Post points out that all 12 of the new board members elected in November are Democrats. Color me unsurprised.

Most notable was Karl Frisch, vice chair who becomes chairman in January. He swore his oath on a pile of five LGBTQ+ books that have been removed in many places from access by younger children because of their pornographic content.

Make no mistake, Frisch and friends weren’t taking a stand against “banned books.” They were deliberately offending and mocking people of faith.

By the way, there are no “banned books.” If you can buy these books in a bookstore they aren’t banned. Many parents were outraged when they discovered that many elementary and middle school libraries contained books that featured graphic sex, gay sex and sex between adults and youngsters.

These concerned parents demanded the books be removed from some school libraries. Anyone who really wants their first grader to see images of oral sex between boys and men can order a copy of “Gender Queer” from Amazon and share it with their kids.

Even Democratic operative Ben Tribbett objected to the asinine behavior by Democrat school board members.

He’s right. It was this sort of revolting behavior that got Gov. Glenn Youngkin, Lt. Gov. Winsome Sears and Attorney General Jason Miyares elected.

Keep it up, Democrats. Normal people need to be reminded of who you are.
