My thought exactly. If I asked someone to draw something that reminded them of Christmas, and they drew a picture of a man on a cross, I probably wouldn't ask, "Hey, who's that?" The teacher was drawing attention to something that wasn't that big of a deal in the first place.

Why is this not allowed?? I don't understand why people are getting all bent out of shape about minor things. Remember the days when you could have holiday parties in school? And tell people "Merry Christmas!" ... yea, that's not allowed anymore.

But that's a different argument for a different thread.

I guess he was supposed to draw a picture of the Festivus Pole.
Would have been my first choice!
