This is pure evil at work here. Having a nativity scene in no way results in the establishment of a state religion, one of the main concerns of the Founders. However, banning said display does violate the free exercise clause. If you want to get a sense of what is going on read The Screwtape Letters by C.S. Lewis or the more modern version, The Snakebite Letters by Peter Kreeft. The Lewis version was written in the 1930s or 40s and some of the references are dated. Kreeft's version is more in line with the current methods of the atheists and secularists.
