As we moved into December and what for some time has been called “the holiday season,” the Office of Diversity and Inclusion at the University of Tennessee issued a “best practices” directive for the campus to “ensure your holiday party is not a Christmas party in disguise.”

Interesting. How many threads and articles are there now on how Christmas is dying? SECULAR (for profit) Xmas is dying. But CHRISTmas is alive and well at our house. MERRY CHISTMAS!

“The truth about Christmas is for years we complained about Christmas becoming more and more commercialized. Now we see that can’t hold the truth.
