*Twas the month before Christmas*
*When all through our land,*
*Not a Christian was praying*
*Nor taking a stand.*
*See the PC Police had taken away,*
*The reason for Christmas - no one could say.*
*The children were told by their schools not to sing,*
*About Shepherds and Wise Men and Angels and things.*
*It might hurt people's feelings, the teachers would say*
* December 25th is just a " Holiday ".*
*Yet the shoppers were ready with cash, checks and credit*
*Pushing folks down to the floor just to get it!*
*CDs from Madonna, an X-BOX, an I-pod*
*Something was changing, something quite odd! *
*Retailers promoted Ramadan and Kwanzaa*
*In hopes to sell books by Franken & Fonda.*
*As Targets were hanging their trees upside down*
* At Lowe's the word Christmas - was no where to be found.*
*At K-Mart and Staples and Penny's and Sears*
*You won't hear the word Christmas; it won't touch your ears.*
*Inclusive, sensitive, Di-ver-si-ty*
*Are words that were used to intimidate me.*
*Now Daschle, Now Darden, Now Sharpton, Wolf Blitzen*
*On Boxer, on Rather, on Kerry, on Clinton !*
*At the top of the Senate, there arose such a clatter*
*To eliminate Jesus, in all public matter.*
*And we spoke not a word, as they took away our faith*
; * Forbidden to speak of salvation and grace*
*The true Gift of Christmas was exchanged and discarded*
*The reason for the season, stopped before it started.*
*So as you celebrate "Winter Break" under your "Dream Tree"*
*Sipping your Starbucks, listen to me.*
*Choose your words carefully, choose what you say*
*Shout MERRY CHRISTMAS ,
not Happy Holiday!*

I think it is something that is leading to an intelligent populace. I think religion should be a private matter, out of government, media, and the precious and most influential of ears, our children.
Christmas was adopted from pagan religions long ago. It is not a singular christian celebration, nor is it Jesus' supposed birthday.

I hate math. by no skill understood the innovations thoroughly. BQ: Hm, i like Biology, English, and historic previous. i like Biology because of the fact i hit upon gaining awareness of with regard to the human physique somewhat eye-catching and that i had 2 astonishing bio instructors that taught me to love a concern I had disliked before. English because I appreciate interpreting poems and in seek of the deeper meaning. historic previous because of the fact i'm prepared approximately the previous and how it connects to the modern-day.

Brilliant!!
I must admit that I can be guilty of losing sight of what Christmas is all about, but this certainly brought me back.
Thanks for sharing.
