Rev. Jim Melnyk, associate rector of St. Mark's Episcopal Church in Raleigh, N.C., in a letter to the editor regarding another Raleigh church that recently paid $7,600 for a full-page newspaper ad urging Christians to spend their money only with merchants who include the greeting "Merry Christmas" in ads and displays:
