Amen, Amen!

When I am out and about on the streets during November and December, I have made it a practice to ask Salvation Army bell ringers what the "Salvation" means in the name of their organization. Only about 1/3 have a clue. I have a very well written tract that explains God's Gift of Eternal Life and have had opportunity to share Christ on numerous occasions with the ringers themselves as well as interested "religious" folk who are nearby.

Feliz (Joyeous) Navidad (Birth)!

It is confrontational in-your-face types like you that give Christmas a bad rap.
Most of the bell ringers are minimum wage hired help and you should be lucky one of them hasn't "rung your bell" because of your bellicose attitude. If it was me, you'd wind up wearing the kettle as a hat !!!
