Christmas....Politically Incorrect?
Merry Christmas.
I'm in Alabama for the week, visiting family. We tried to go to mass today but there was no one at the church. Apparently the newspaper had it wrong.
But I think... I think the newspaper was misleading us, making us go to Christmas mass at a time where there was no one there because they don't want us to go at all. It's just like how the Republicans told the Democrats to vote a day later, on Nov. 3rd.
It's okay though, because I didn't want to go to church anyway.
Staying on the Christmas vein, however, isn't it more apparent now how we as a culture are being so sensitive to other religions and beliefs as to where we start to cut our own religions and beliefs down? It's not okay to have a Christmas tree at school, but a Menorah is fine. I predict that soon, though most of the population is Christian, we will be the outcasts, the black sheep of society. And I don't understand it.
Let me have my Jesus, even if I choose not to love him.
Don't attack my Catholic culture, just because it is in the majority (including Protestant branches of Christianity here as well).
The bottom line is: Stop being ridiculous. Let people celebrate what they want to celebrate. There shall be no banning of Santa Claus in the school system. There shall be no more using Merry Holiday in place of Merry Christmas. Take your political correctness and shove it.
Again, Merry Christmas, and may the peace of God be with you all.
