Leave it to ABCs The View to connect Christmas the celebration of the worlds most important birth to abortion. But that it did. According to Whoopi Goldberg, the right to publicly celebrate Christmas is the same as a womans right to choose.
During The View on Dec. 13, Goldberg brought up a story from Texas where a public school teacher was forced to remove a display, a a Christmas display of Linus, based off of the Peanuts film A Charlie Brown Christmas. That display, she added, included a Biblical quote from the cartoon movie reading, For unto you is born this day in the city of David a savior, which is Christ the Lord. Thats what Christmas is all about, Charlie Brown.
Co-host Joy Behar defended the school districts decision.
There are many quotes from the cartoon, Behar argued. They picked one that was particularly provocative.
But another co-host, Jedediah Bila, defended the teacher by asking, Why do people have to get offended by everything? She continued:
I was raised Catholic for years. If I see a menorah, I say, Oh thats great, someones someones expressing themselves and what they love and what theyre passionate about. If an atheist is entitled to not believe in anything. It doesnt offend me, though, and I think theres something wrong culturally if we jump to be offended by everything.
Goldberg also defended the public Christmas display. Lets keep in mind, it is Christmas, she began. It is Christmas. And, she said, Christmas has no chance of disappearing anytime soon.

Now, what people get crazy about, cause nobody is trying to get rid of Christmas, she added. You cant. Christmas is what it is. This is when it happens. Its always theres Christmas trees always going to happen.
To clarify the schools decision, co-host Sunny Hostin tried to cite Texas law.
The law in that state says a display relating to a traditional winter celebration may not include a message that encourages adherence to a particular religious belief, she began. But Goldberg interrupted that certain times are more appropriate to celebrate certain holidays.
Its ridiculous no, no, but they dont all fall at the same time. Christmas falls at this time, this is when you do it. If Hanukkah and Christmas are a weekend within, then you put them together, she began. But you cannot pretend that Christmas doesnt start with the birth of Christ.
She continued:
Im not a religious person, okay? Im not a religious person. But I do know that Christmas starts with the word Christ. Its about the birth of Christ. So you cant you cant erase that. And if you dont believe in it, if you dont believe in it, then you got Santa Claus.
Behar sought middle ground by saying that even though shes a very big Christmas fan she still agreed separation of church and state must be adhered to in a public school.
Goldberg disagreed again this time by bringing up (the completely unrelated topic of) abortion:
But its the same conversation with a womans right to choose. What I do with my body is my right. It is not your right to tell me. The same thing is its if you believe in Christmas, its not my right you know, I grew up and and, you know, kids who didnt go to Catholic school had Christmas and they we never knew what their religions were, but we hung cause it was Christmas holiday.
Abortion is a topic her show routinely obsesses over. In the past, the View crew has called former presidential candidate Dr. Ben Carson pathetic for speaking out against abortion and slammed actor Kelsey Grammer for wearing a pro-life T-shirt. Goldberg has also declared that abortion is legal because people are tired of hanger and Clorox abortions and insisted that there was nothing in the Bible about abortion.
I wish to hell someone would abort Hoppee! That idiot needs to just go away.
What??????
That is one lost woman.....
a baby is not your body. Nobody is banning tattoos and body piercings
Whoopi (not her real name) brags that she has had 6 or 7 abortions,she’s said that it is a VERY serious decision and that she’s forgotten just how many times she killed her kids.
I swear these people are just plain nuts.
The View needs to be aborted.
She is correct, worship of the god molech is freedom of religion, and whoopie is a very religious worshiper of that god
Someone should just use their right to punch Whoopie right in the mouth. She’s been spewing her garbage way too long.
Killing kids is the same as celebrating Christmas. Only in a sick person’s mind it is.
...and my right to hold slaves
She is nuts but she’s perfectly at home on The View/freak show.
I never watched that bitch. She was arrogant and WAY over rated but now we have Trump to stomp her jack ass in the dirt. What kind of name is woohpie?
again, another example why evil must be destroyed. if not it starts calling itself good while actually trying to destroy good.
My MA Mother in Law was at my house last year and she had that show on.
I could not believe how stupid it was, and how people could watch utter crap.
Do you think Ted Danson left the black face on when he did her.
Nope fake news she never had any abortions who would have ever boinked her no one
She is named after that novelty cushion
The LORD grant Whoopi repentance and faith before it’s too late. Amen.
