EU Omits Christmas and Easter in School Diaries; MEP: "Aggressive Atheism" of EU Commission

Many Christians were astonished today (January 13, 2011) upon learning that the European Union (EU) diaries for school children list Jewish, Hindu, Sikh, and Muslim festivals, but make no mention of Christmas or Easter, according to the Christian Today website.

Three million of the diaries were printed for 2011. The diaries have angered Roman Catholic, Eastern Orthodox, and Protestant Christians.

German conservative Member of the European Parliament (MEP) Martin Kastler attributed the omissions to "aggressive atheism in the apparatus of the European Union Commission."

He added, "I expect a personal apology from the Commission president because I believe this was intentionally published in this way."
