A homeowners' association ordered an Idaho man to remove the Christmas decorations from his front yard because they might be offensive to non-Christians. Jeremy Morris's holiday display features tens of thousands of lights, a live choir, and a life-size Nativity scene. The association objected, calling the display "a nuisance" to residents of other faiths. Morris says the display will stay, and that "religious freedom" is at stake.
