So yesterday I went to the store and lo and behold I saw… Christmas Decorations. In September. Then I got home and sat down to read some news and I saw Lauren Boebert claiming this:
“We need God back at the center of our country,” she said. “It’s time for us to position ourselves, and rise up, and take our place in Christ, and influence this nation as we were called to do.” God is on our side. The blood has been applied, we are going straight into victory. You are all more than conquerers through God, through Christ who strengthens you every step of the way.”
Ok, ignoring the fact that Religion is the cause of much of the pain in this world and the fact that you sound like a kid about to shoot up a school… you need God back at the center of the country?
Uh, have you looked around lately Mrs Professional Victim? Every President ever, in the history of this country, was a “Christian”. And don’t give me that “Kennedy was Catholic” crap, still Christian. There are over 350,000 Christian Churches in the USA. Yeah, one for every 1000 people. Lets talk about your “high holiday”. The “Christmas” that Donald Trump saved. The one that only the mighty Donald Trump could rescue by giving the Christians the right to say “Merry Christmas” again.
Used to be “Christmas” started after Thanksgiving. Then it eased it’s way back to Nov 1st, then Oct and now September. Your one day holiday now lasts 4 months. You’d never know it though, as oppressed as you poor Christians are. I mean, it’s the “Christmas season”! Where are the Christmas Trees, Christmas Cards, Christmas Stamps, Christmas Lights, Christmas Mangers, Christmas Mass, Christmas Parades, Christmas Vacations, Christmas Bonuses, Christmas Presents, Christmas Ornaments, Christmas Decorations, Christmas Music, Christmas Movies, Christmas TV Shows, Christmas Dinners, Christmas Cookies, Christmas Wreaths, Christmas Stockings and Christmas Sweaters? What is a poor oppressed Christian to do?
Well, what they do is decide that the word “freedom” means that only Christians are free, and that the Muslims, Jews, Buddhists, Hindus, Agnostics and Atheists should be forced to live by the “rules” of a mythology they don’t believe in. Doesn’t sound very “America First” to me.
Now if you’ll excuse me there are only 3 months till Hanukkah, I have to go find candles for my Menorah. They are usually in the “Asian” section of the grocery store, on the top shelf, to the left of the Water Chestnuts, behind the generic soy sauce.
