Checking through your profile to see how long you have been in this forum and the amount of merit you have earned so far, I think you should have familiar yourself with the right board to post in and not to post in. Meta board mainly has to do with the posts that concern the forum itself such as change of rules, complain, observations and something similar to such.
On that note, it's necessary to move your topic from here to off topic discussion
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=9.0 I believe you know how to move a topic right? Well, incase you don't know, scroll down to left side bottom and you'll see move topic link and lock topic. Click on the move topic link and move it to appropriate board which I think should be off topic. Do it yourself and free mods from the unnecessary stress.
By the way, I read from the news recently before the Christmas that Bethlehem banned Christmas celebration. I don't know how authentic such information is but if it is true, then nothing is surprising here.
