Now that wqs really nice to read at the beginning of my day. I'm repeating it again below. Thanks for posting the article.
I join with Ann Coulter in celebrating Galatians 3:28, which notes that the gift of eternal life through Jesus Christ is available to all, no matter their race, color, background or heritage. It says, "There is neither Jew nor Greek, slave nor free, there is neither male nor female; for you are all one in Christ Jesus.
" (NKJV).

I like Kwanzaa with grilled pork. Mix it with rice and it delicious. Wait, whats Kwanzaa again?? ;-)
Everytime somebody mentions Kwanzaa, I hear Krusty the Clowns voice in my head saying "Have a Krazy Kwanzaa". Can't remember the exact quote, but it was something like that. I'm not a big Falwell fan, but he's not wrong about this faux holiday. Its just Marxism wrapped in different paper.

This phony invention is gaining respect. Just like the Rev Al has gained respect.
Only in the PC-dominated USA can garbage rise to the top.

Krusty: So, have a merry Christmas, a happy Hanukkah, a kwaazy Kwanza, a tip-top Tet, and a solemn, dignified, Ramadan. And now a word from MY god, our sponsors!

I don't care a whit about "Kwanzaa" just so long as nobody forgets that July 30 is 'Universal Salamander Appreciation Day'.

Lots of $$$ involved. Holidays are big business. Even holidays with old historical origins are exploited. Take Valentine's Day - a minor no-account holiday promoted and exploited by florists, candy makers, jewelers, etc. A better name for it would be Mushy Money Day, a needless day where trinkets are extorted out of husbands and boyfriends by the fear that the significant woman will get sore.

Since there is no credible evidence of the mythical event it is reputed to be based upon, Christmas is an illegitimate holiday. The holiday was invented and placed on the calendar to commandeer the millennial long celebration of winter solstice. For that matter, for similar reasons, Easter is just as illegitimate because it too is a celebration of a mythical event and was placed on the calendar to commandeer the millennial long celebration of spring equinox.

I dont think many Americans take it seriously. Just the liberal/leftard panderers who thought that they could garner votes and so foisted it on us, and even THEY dont actually believe in it except as another tool to get power.

Right............
So Jesus of Nazareth wasnt born and he didnt die in execution for being who he was.....
Pray tell, what do you believe in that we can just as ignorantly label a 'myth' ????
And if you claim to be an Atheist, that itself is a belief in something unproven.

Hopefully they have a ceremonial 'washing of the hands' for that (Salamanders skin exude strong natural poisons and people need to remember to clean their hands after handling them).
Those fanatics who dance around with salamanders in their mouths are just a bit too 'fringy' in my opinion.

At least Groundhog Day has a real groundhog.
Charles Darwin's birthday is February 12th.

Kwanza is pure BS and will eventually fade away.
