If Chanukah teaches us anything it should be not to let the government tell us what we have to worship.
Society does not get it's morals from government. Government get it's morals from the people. And the people get their morals from our Judea-Christian values.
That is the core principle that guided our Founding Fathers and the creation of our Nation. If we forget this, like the Nation of Israel, America will be overtaken by it's enemies.
If America fails to heed the warnings of Washington and Lincoln and others, America will fall just as the mighty Babylonians and Egyptians and Greeks and Romans all did.
