ray of hope; it’s christmas
yet another tiny ray of hope regarding all things going politically correct. i must admit, i actually experienced some spiritual pleasure after reading the article. when, i first saw the headline, i was expecting to see yet another item about dumbing down any activity that related to identity.
“It’s time to stop being daft about Christmas. It’s fine to celebrate and it’s fine for Christ to be star of the show,” said Trevor Phillips, chairman of the Equality and Human Rights Commission.
“Let’s stop being silly about a Christian Christmas,” he said, referring to a tendency to play down the traditional celebrations of the birth of Christ for fear of offending minorities in multicultural Britain.
Hands off Christmas, say religious leaders: Reuters
if the pc activists have their way, we will soon be living in a world of very small vocabulary made of vague words that quite doesn’t mean anything and and a world where events don’t signify anything.
i cannot stress the happiness i feel when a celebration is due. it doesn’t matter who is celebrating and for what reason. the sheer joy that envelops you is enough reason for a celebration to be.
if Mr. Phillips is looking for a vote, he sure has one.
Merry Christmas, all of you!
