Their petition, No. 2493, would ultimately pave the way to stop the reading of the Gospel of our Lord and Savior, on the airwaves of America.

This group is also campaigning to remove all Christmas programs, Christmas songs, and Christmas carols from public schools! You can help! We arepraying for at least one million signed letters.

C. 20054 RE: Petition 2493, 2495 Dear Sirs: I am an American and am very thankful for my American Heritage. Our forefathers founded this country under the premise of a strong belief and faith in God and his principles.

Therefore, I protest any effort to remove from radio or television programs designed to nurture faith in God, or to remove Christmas programs, Christmas songs, and Christmas carols from public airwaves, schools, office buildings, etc. as proposed in Petition 2493 or 2495. Sincerely,
