CHRISTMAS......

Even if your not Christian, you have to admit....its getting pretty rediculous.
Freedom is slowly fading.


Quote:
'Twas the Month Before Christmas...



Twas the month before Christmas,

When all through our land,

Not a Christian was praying

Nor taking a stand.



Why the Politically Correct Police had taken away,

The reason for Christmas - no one could say.

The children were told by their schools not to sing,

About Shepherds and Wise Men and Angels and things.



It might hurt people's feelings, the teachers would say

December 25th is just a "Holiday".

Yet the shoppers were ready with cash, checks and credit,

Pushing folks down to the floor just to get it!



CDs from Madonna, an X BOX, an I-pod ,

Something was changing, something quite odd!

Retailers promoted Ramadan and Kwanzaa

In hopes to sell books by Franken & Fonda.



But as Target was hanging their trees upside down

At Lowe's the word Christmas - was no where to be found.

At K-Mart and Staples and Penny's and Sears

You won't hear the word Christmas; it won't touch your ears.



Inclusive, sensitive, Di-ver-si-ty

Are words that were used to intimidate me.

Now Daschle, Now Darden, Now Sharpton, Wolf Blitzen

On Boxer, on Rather, on Kerry, on Clinton!



At the top of the Senate, there arose such a clatter

To eliminate Jesus, in all public matter.

And we spoke not a word, as they took away our faith

Forbidden to speak of salvation and grace.



The true Gift of Christmas was exchanged and discarded

The reason for the season, stopped before it started.

So as you celebrate "Winter Break" under your "Dream Tree"

Sipping your Starbucks, listen to me.



Choose your words carefully, choose what you say

Shout MERRY CHRISTMAS, not Happy Holiday,

Our country was founded on the Christian way!

To our "guests" I can say, "If you don't like it, you don't have to stay!!"
 
Sorry to bust your bubble there buddy, but Christmas is not really a Christian holiday. It was founded by the Romans prior to the birth of Jesus Christ to honer the god Saturn. It typically consisted of gambling, gift giving, drinking, public nudity, etc. Was turned into a supposed Christian holiday by the Catholic Church.

Hey? Now that you're in the 'public' arena of NAXJA, shouldn't you cease all outward signs of your religious affiliation that can be viewed by the public of NAXJA?

You know.....separation of church and....... :D

Sure it is. Has been for the last 1700 years or so.

Whens the last time you saw a bunch of Romans jumping around naked celebrating the winter solstice?

Ms. Manners? Is that you? :D

Why yes Mr. Frasier it is. Red was polite enough to let me us his comptuer while he stepped away.

Oh...before I forget, I had lunch with Heidi Fliss (SP?) you DO remember her "employees" I presume?

She wanted me to pass along a thank you from all of them that you "know", and also it was a privleged having you as a "Mile High Club" member.

Sincerly,

Mrs. Manners

( and atcually it was the "PAGANS" not the christians celebrating the festival of Saturnalia. The catholic church wanted them to play nice...)

I dunno about romans...

but we pagans still celebrate Solstice...

Christianity absorbed alot of pagan rituals in order to make their preachings more palatable...

look it up.
 
Wasn't it a pope that made the decision on when to celebrate christmas?

It's not like they could actually base it on the actual day...

babies are born in barns all over the world...

There must've been 100 Jesus's born just today in Mexico!

:D


p.s. Enjoy the Holidays... in whatever way you do... or don't
