I'll ask the question again
Walk into the Franklin Public Library, straight ahead, through the front doors, there it is, a large Christmas tree.
Inside Franklin City Hall, there is no large Christmas tree. Outside? Nope.
Inside the City Clerk's Office, there on the reception desk, there's one of those minature jobs, about a foot tall. If there's a larger tree somewhere else in the building, I'm unaware.
A tree is one thing. How about a creche? My, wouldn't that be.....authentic. Try appropriate.
And so I ask, as I did in a blog last December, should Franklin City Hall display a Nativity scene?
I say .......

YES.
It’s too late for this year, but I would wholeheartedly support setting up a Nativity scene inside or outside Franklin City Hall next year.
Numerous city halls around the country or city owned property have Nativity displays.
By the way…..if you were even slightly upset or a bit uneasy reading this blog, then, I'm sorry, but you just don’t get it and never will.
MERRY CHRISTMAS!
