I'm glad that he is allowed to wear his hat again! When I was a manger I had an associate who's religion did not include Christmas, or any holidays for that matter. The first year I worked with her in a manager position she asked me to ban all the other associates from wearing Santa hats because it offended her. It took a lot of talking on convincing but I was able to work it out that other could wear the hat and she could work on the other side of the store away from them so that her 'peer's wouldn't think that she condoned the hats.

I wish certain groups and people would stop taking things so seriously. If they don't like it then they shouldn't wear, preach, or partake, but shouldn't expect others to stop solely for their sake.
