Sadly, more attacks on all things Christian and Christmas.
Makes me want to bash my head on a brick wall.
What blockheads.
Makes ME want to bash THEIR heads on a brick wall!
I’m way past being saddened. This is worse than an attack, it’s an unnecessary surrender, a signal to the enemy that we are prepared to abandon our faith.
Some would say it’s a trivial thing, but each trivial gesture hastens the extinction.
This is tiresome.....what would happen if these same people in America began to call Charlie Wrangle on his insane tax schemes or Senator Clinton using her disgraced husband to further her power plays with lies or William Jefferson still not behind bars because he is a Democrat. There are so many issues that affect the nation....even though this happened in Britton, it is happening here in the US also. What should be private opinion about religion is made a national complaint....well it rarely if ever is. So get a life Politically Correct and leave the rest of the world alone.
A case involving the USPS and an employee who filed a complaint about his supervisor not disciplining a female employee for "displaying large breasts" (albeit behind several bras, camisoles, shirts, and jackets), ended up being tossed by EEOC and I believe the MSPB as well!
Christians all over the world can stop it in it's tracks just by not bowing to PCer's whims. Where's the faith in God to put a hedge of protection around those who fight for right?
Outrageous. Prayers for their conversion!
Is it so hard for parents to simply tell their children to sing it the way they want anyway? I mean the Doors did that on Ed Sullivan ("Girl we couldn't get much higher...") after promising not to, why not kids at school? I would so instruct my kids, and if they suspended her, I would spend every penny I had to sue them and make as much as a fuss as possible until the cowards relented.
I’m still trying to figure out who could possibly be “offended” by the Christmas story.
“Blessed are those who find no offense in me.” - Jesus
There’s your hint.
Just borrowing from an old tradition.
Maria was just a latin nickname anyway.
Her given name was Miriam, just like Moshe's sister.
Of course, the mention of a Hebrew name would really have set off the PC crowd.
You are correct, MGG.
I remember an old saying about faith, and here it is:
“For those who believe, no explanation is necessary; for those who do not believe, no explanation will do.”
Isn’t it extraordinary that anyone could find a song about a little donkey carrying the Blessed Mother offensive?
Honest, I’m trying not to be judgmental, but when I see a story like this, it is a real test of my Christian patience.
This is but one more example of why the UK is doomed. They are already behaving like the vanquished in an occupied country.
I still want to know the real lyrics to Louie Louie!
