Bubbles. I love TPB!
Fine, so she sits out. No big deal. At least she’s not asking to interupt the class with screeching and footwashing.
Oh Tannenbaum, Oh Tannenbaum,
Your branches green delight us.
They’re green when summer days are bright;—
They’re green when winter snow is white.
Oh Tannenbaum, Oh Tannenbaum,
Your branches green delight us!
Anybody know any good wiccan songs?
I didn’t think so...
LOL. Just what I was thinking too. Check out the woman standing in the middle (second from the left) and the bug-eyed kid in the pink coat. Nice, eh?
That’s fine. The secret with the US model is that nobody HAS to do something with which they do not agree. Well, until now, when we will all be having to pledge allegiance to the Obama Marxist Gay United States.
That said, I really feel bad for these kids. Also, somebody in the family obviously has a genetically transmitted visual defect but will not permit the kids to have a fairly simple surgery that could correct it, at least from the aesthetic point of view.
I had a BIL who was cross-eyed and refused to let his 7 kids have the surgery because he felt that he was made that way, it was fine for him, and they should have to suffer as he had done. Very sad for the kids, since the defect could have been corrected very easily and would have made their lives in school a lot more pleasant.
I feel bad for this poor kid. She’s only 15 and she’s trying to do what her family has told her was right. There’s a good chance she’s not the most popular kid in her school and kids can be cruel at her age. I don’t ever say this on FR but I think she needs prayers.
It’s early but I think it’s safe to say that was the post of the day.
I bet you could come up with some old Celtic Winter Solstice songs that these neo-pagans would approve of.
But I wonder if the school would allow a Christian kid to sit any of them out.
No, I'm not willing to put any money on question...
.
.Or perhaps they are just Winter Solstice lights, eh?
What’s the wiccan view of cutting down Christmas trees?
Burning the Yule log?
They celebrate ugly very well.
I don’t see a problem with it, either. At least she’s not demanding that the songs be taken out of the performance and that the word “Christmas” be replaced with something more “diverse”.
Ever notice who the intolerant ones are?
Pray for America’s Freedom
Who cares?
Why is this even ‘news’?
They can stay home as far as I’m concerned and worship their ‘lord’ Satan!
Sometimes ‘news’ isn’t!
Dumb.
Our orchestra just played a concert yesterday and our Jewish member had no problem playing all of the Christmas music.
But then, he’s a well-adjusted adult with no desire to claim 15 minutes of fame on the evening news.
Parents inflicting madness on their children.
How long before, and for how long afterwards, will this one be under psychiatric care (at taxpayer’s expense)?
And they always tend to look like that too.
“Perfect. She is going to sit out the songs that offend her. What’s the problem?”
__________
I agree. They aren’t demanding the songs not be sung. They are participating where they are confortable and not standing in the way for others to do the same. perfect compromise that doesn’t even warrant a news story.
Why has our left-leaning culture decided that celebrating others' happiness or traditions is forbidden? Why the distancing from each other?
I sure sang Jewish holiday songs when I was in choir. It was part of the tradition, too.
We are all forced to "celebrate" the PC sub-group of the day but none of the PC sub-groups will return the friendliness. They cannot show respect to any but their own sub-group, I guess.
Bah humbug.
