WHAT?

That’s certainly worth a maximum-strength Shovel Award for our current Administration.

You can’t celebrate “Christmas” as “non-religious.”

It’s religious by its nature. If you don’t want to celebrate this religious holiday, fine. But don’t try to dress up that pig of an idea, a “non-religious Christmas,” and present it as something other than what it is: a badly warped and objectionable distortion of a Christian holiday.

Yes, there are other secular (and pagan) festivals that preceeded Christmas on this same date. Whoopee. That’s also true of the Fourth of July, and we don’t see Americans quibbling about how we need to celebrate events that happened prior to 1776 on that holiday, now do we?

To squeeze, subvert, redefine and otherwise mangle Christmas into being something other than what it is–the celebration of Christ’s birth, one of the most revered sacred holidays for Christians–asks all Christians to submit to a fatuous lie.

No, thank you.

If the current White House, which represents a Christian nation (what an unpopular thought, no? And how daring to state it!) doesn’t want to celebrate Christ’s birth, they need to call a spade a spade, say they aren’t celebrating Christmas, and go find themselves another holiday to promote.

This one’s taken.

Just sayin’.
