The writer finally “gets it”.....This season is all about celebration and sharing that celebration and love with others...
But did you ever thank her? Did you ever apologize for reporting her to HR? Are you writing this now to absolve yourself of guilt?

>> “Uh, Jesus was a Jew...” <<
And he celebrated Chanukkah, and didn’t celebrate christmas! (read John ch 10)

Right on!

I have Jewish friend that I dearly love. I try to keep track of the Jewish holidays so I can send them greetings on the days and spend a lot of time on Google so I dont say the wrong thing.
In turn they share greetings with me on Christmas. It’s the love and caring that matters.
“That wonderful lady passed away this week, and as I lit my Chanukah candles I thought of her.
But did you ever thank her? Did you ever apologize for reporting her to HR? Are you writing this now to absolve yourself of guilt? “
They are atoning all the time.
Best day to eat out is Christmas. We don’t even buy gifts. Cards with a handwritten note sends our love. What’s better than that? All this mercantile salmagundi is crazy. Love is all you need.
All the Messianic Jew’s I know used to be Baptists... it’s a small town without a synagogue.
And the Jews were wanting to kill Him after He stated “I and the Father are one” and managed to escape. Guess the Jews were not in the festive mood while in the Temple.
Sacre Bleu!
At least Jesus was an integral part of advancing Western Civ.
Unlike say, Mad Mo', 0bama, most 'Rats, most EU politicians, et. al.
We live in an era where I can have CVS or Walgreens make 70 personalized Christmas photo cards and five personalized Happy Hanukah Photo Cards. I send out both. Although this year it will be “Happy New Year” as Hanukah snuck up early.
Elites of all ages seem to have that in common. Many non-elite Jews followed Jesus, worshiped and adored him.
Many non-elite did not as well.
Some people need encouragement to “Moveon.com”.
Thanks. I did not learn that in Sunday School in the 50’s.
Nice essay. So glad he decided to stop being a victim and come to understand how all can enjoy the meaning of the season. Thanks for posting.
Turned her into HR?! What kind of sorcery is this?!
Turned her in to HR.
But if He had not died on the cross, none of us would be saved. Plus, it was the Romans who did the actual execution. It has all come about the way God intended.
I may be getting a little sleepy but I chuckled to myself thinking about Mary baking a cake with candles not realizing it was Christmas.
I’ll never understand why people get offended when someone of another religion wishes them a happy Hanukkah or Christmas or Ramadan or Diwali or whatever. They’re trying to be nice. Let them.
I’m glad the guy learned but it seems like that should be the norm and not the exception.
