Don't forget those three American holidays: Hanukkah, Kwanzaa, and.....gingerbread house.
It's not as if the Holy Family is a new concept. Christmas is coming. Peace on earth to men of good will—and let's none of us start getting Kwanza around the edges.
Go postal?¿?/s idiots infected by the white hut...
Don’t go postal.
I was waiting to see if anyone else noticed that before I posed that very same question.
I just went to the USPS website and they have a Christmas stamp that looks like Mary & Joseph with the Baby Jesus riding the donkey with the star from the East in the sky. They always have two Christmas stamps to choose from each year, one religious, and one not religious.
Knock yourself out, bud. I'm not your research department.
That’s offensive and appears to be child porn. You’ll need to swaddle that baby before mailing.
if you bothered to research on https://store.usps.com/store/browse/subcategory.jsp?categoryId=subcatS_S_HolidayStamps&categoryNavIds=catBuyStamps%3AsubcatS_S_HolidayStamps&WT.mc_id=2013holiday_holidaystamps
they have Holy Family, Virgin and Child and Christmas wreath in addition to the gingerbread house shown.
There are some beautiful Christmas stamps at the USPS
website.

That’s a nice one.
I seldom read Malkin. However, she is conservative and monitors Twitter comments. She is an American. Shame on you.
Very good. Clearly there’s something special about Mary and Joseph. God chose them to be the earthly parents of His Son.
Don’t be so critical.
Any stamps for non-Catholics?
Jesus(Yah'shua) was born during His feast of Tabernacles. The birth of Christ on December 25 ? Sukkot as the date is supported by Elizabeth's Zacharias served as a high priest and John would have been born on Pesach. Factor in when Miriam visited her cousin Elizabeth, John (1:14) tells us that Yah'shua was made flesh The word "dwelt" in the Koine Greek is: Eight days after the beginning of Sukkot is Eight days after a Jewish male is born he is circumcised. After the Eighth day comes the the most Joyous day: Nine months back from Sukkot is Chanukah
"Christmas" is a pagan holiday created by the Roman "church"
A clear reading of the Holy Word of G-d would lead to another date.
A date commanded by YHvH with clear Biblical meaning and understanding.
Chanukah is a great time for followers of the Jewish Messiah to celebrate.
The eight day Feast of Chanukah echoes of the eight days of the Feast of Tabernacles
Chanukah was most likely when the "light of the world"
(John 8:12) entered human form and tabernacled among us.
Feast of Tabernacles is the birth day of Yah'shua.
This question is answered when you believe and trust
the Holy Word of Elohim in Luke 1.
Yah'shua's birth on Sukkot
shalom b'SHEM Yah'shua HaMashiach
(Sukkot is the Feast of Tabernacles or booths,
where we live in temporary shelters.
Sukkot is when YHvH took on a temporary
garment to be with His People
and to die as the Lamb of G-d on Pesach
in order to bring salvation to all
who would call on His Name:
(Romans 10:13 & Joel 2:32)
Yah'shua ( YHvH is become my salvation)). Ps. 18:2, 46; 27:1; 35:9; 38:22; 88:1;
118:14; 119:174; 140:7; Isa. 12:2; 56:1;
61:10; Mic. 7:7; Hab. 3:18
pregnancy of John the Immerser.
The time sequence is outlined by the
Holy Word of Elohim in Luke 1 with Zacharias.
based on his tribe, we know when he served
(1 Chronicles 24:7-18) and when he was
struck dumb and when John was conceived.
Most Jews believed that Elijah
would come at Pesach to announce
the coming of the Messiah (Malachi 4:5).
Elizabeth was six months pregnant (Luke 1:26)
Thus the timing of Yah'shua's birth can be ascertained.

Can you supply a reason for the gratuitous nose-thumbing?
the one in the middle is not the Christmas stamp. It is the politically correct holiday stamp.
I'm dreaming of a bright Kwanzaa
With the seven candles all a-glow
With the flames all flickering
And bright wax dripping
And white lines of coke all in a row
(Let it snow, let it snow!)I'm dreaming of a bright Kwanzaa
With the seven candles all a-glow
Each one we all know
Is lit for each of the great
Fifty seven states
Where Barack Obama has yet to goI'm dreaming of a bright Kwanzaa
With every candle lit each night
For a year that's packed full
With solumn meditation
And generous reparations
And lots of fried chicken for me to eatI'm dreaming of a bright Kwanzaa
So I can watch the candles all a-flame
And the little chi'rens singing
And the government bringing
Free Kwanzaa stuff to my family
And a lot of extra good stuff for me
Lol. I am just communicating what their intent is and that is the middle stamp is the Christmas stamp.
