    Town renames Good Friday for the sake of "Cultural Sensitivity"

    Todd Starnes

    Whenever you hear a liberal talking about cultural diversity and sensitivity it normally means something insensitive is about to happen to Christians.

    The latest case in point: Bloomington, Indiana - the home of Indiana University and a nesting place for a gaggle of intolerant liberals.

    Mayor John Hamilton told Fox 59 the name change will “better reflect cultural sensitivity in the workplace.”

    According to our Fox television affiliate -- some folks around town got upset when City Hall posted a closing sign referencing specific holidays.

    “As a mayor we are in charge of government. We do not set religious policies, we are not supposed to be part of religion and we are just trying to make sure that our government is open to all people and inclusive,” the mayor told the television station.

    And apparently the only way to achieve cultural diversity and sensitivity is by disrespecting Italians and Christians.

    "It was not necessary and just stands to divide rather than unite when it comes to Good Friday," the Herald Times wrote in a staff editorial.

    The newspaper said a case could be made for changing Columbus Day.

    "To some in our country the idea of celebrating him is akin to celebrating a marauding invader who sought to destroy a culture," they wrote.

    But Good Friday?

    "It’s a day important to the faith of many in this country," they wrote. "The idea of acting as if city leaders don’t acknowledge its existence and would rather stick a “Spring Holiday” name on it is insensitive to those for whom it means a lot. It’s an unnecessary poke in the eye to many Christians."

    Well said, editors!

    Mayor Hamilton may not be aware but Christians commemorate the crucifixion of Jesus Christ on Good Friday. It's about remembering that God so loved the world that He gave His only Son.

    Good Friday is a holy day -- not a day to frolick around a maypole in a field of pansies...

    After doing the Revelation study, when I see this stuff, all I can think is the kings of the earth are gathering.

    There will be so much more ugliness coming our way.
