I did repost a status on FB recently.



I have a Pic of a Christmas tree posted. I was asked if it’s my tree. I said no, I’ve posted it every year for about 10 years. It was then suggested that I should put up a tree. I responded with, “No idols in my apartment.”

(Only on my Facebook page )

Look, this has been my own experience. While never being militant anti Christmas- I’d mention it in passing. Then comes the diatribe spewing from the mouths of the pagan Pentecostals and the generic Christians about how they have a million reasons to justify their paganism that they prettied up by pasting the name of Jesus in a few places.

There’s a nativity scene, a baby Jesus mentioned in some songs. But, come on. All that gets plastered over by the prettily painted pagan elements.

I was over a friends house and he had a nativity scene. Well, there were all these children from his church over his house. One little boy was running with the ceramic infant from the nativity scene lifted high aloft in his hand. He kept making airplane sounds, as he dive bombed the other children. My friend's wife lost it. She snatched the boy up from the back of his collar. She wrenched the ceramic infant from the frightened boy's hand. She screamed, "THIS IS THE BABY JESUS!!!" The bewildered young lad, waited until she was done with her rebuke, and reply to her, "why is his arms held out like wings and he has a gold propeller on his head" Needless to say I burst out laughing with a healthy, HO HO HO UH OH!!!
