Hanukkah should be a day of mourning for the secularists. They got their butts kicked. Did you read Christopher Hitchen's latest article. He does just that.

Gee - this Catholic is considering taking up the celebrations of our older brothers and sisters in faith.

Hanukkah should be a day of mourning for the secularists. They got their butts kicked.True, but the true story of Chanukkah is seldom told in America. The "official" version is that it is a celebration of "religious freedom" (ie, the right to worship any "gxd" or no G-d whatsoever so long as this decision is kept private and doesn't impinge on the "real world") and "separation of church and state." You know, like they had in ancient Biblical Israel . . . NOT!!!
As I understand it, Antiochus was an intolerant Southern Baptist Missionary who wanted everyone to be "saved" and Yehudah HaMaqqavi responded by founding the American Civil Liberties Union and filing a lawsuit, forcing Antiochus to stop forcing Jewish kids to listen to those awful chr*stian Tehillim at school every morning. At least this is what Abe Foxman thinks happened.
You know, I used to celebrate chr*stmas and it's hard enough to give it up, but to turn G-d's true alternative into a celebration of secularism and "multiculturalism" just makes this time of year so much worse.

Think I’ll hop in the gaz-guzzling SUV today, drive downtown to the store with the largest selection of menorahs (2 hours round trip), and buy the biggest one in the joint. ....holding at least 1-in. diamater candles. Thanks for the idea, wardaddy. Needed a new menorah anyway.

Soy candles don’t produce CO2. Switch to soy candles.

Just another excuse secular Jews can use to blow off Judaism.

"The environmentalists should think about how much pollution is caused by one solitary diesel truck on the road," Ze'ev said. "They should be fighting the trucks instead of Judaism. This is so trivial, so anti-Jewish and so anti-religious that even the worst anti-Semites couldn't think of it. Just like the Helenists, they are trying to extinguish the flames of the Jewish soul." You can't make this stuff up, I'm lighting them all!

I don't normally do Hannukah ... this season is Advent.
But if it annoys the greenies ...

Now you’ve done it ... I’ll have to go fire up a few votive candles, too. The big ones, you know, in the tall glass jars. They burn for a couple of days ...
