MY THOUGHTS...Short Stories And Poems.

CHRISTMAS IS BEING STOLEN BY THOUGHT POLICE!

Posted in Unspecified

 
This little story is out of the United States of America
but could very easily be written, and be about our land as well.
It makes you think... and if we don't stand up for our selves it
will be to late when Christmas is no more and when any semblence
of our (Christian) celebration of the birth of our Saviour the
Lord Jesus Christ. There is room for every faith to celebrate
their festivals and important holy days and events pertaining to
their particular faith what ever that is. And if you have no faith
well that's okay by me as well but please don't tread on my rights
to celebrate what is important to me. HAPPY CHRISTMAS
 
How the "Left" Stole Christmas
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!

Great poem! Good point! Over here no one complains when people say merry Christmas, and mind you we're a very unreligious country, but the news you here from America... It's foolish. Merry early Christmas to you!

Oh ehm... could you list typically Australian holidays for me? I'm working on a calendar. A link is to be found on my site, under links.

Hi Dawnie!

Glad to see you back! The Christmas problem doesn't seem so bad, at least where I am. It's just that the religious right is so extreme, that I for one, don't want them to get a foot hold. People have been asking whatever happened to tolerance for other religions? With these people, if you don't agree with their religion, their lifestyle, their rules, you are wrong, bad, and doomed. I tend to say, "Happy Holidys" because that included New Years and everything else anyone cares to celebrat!

Christmass

Well from my point of view I cannot help but to see it as ironic, and a sort of what comes around goes around type of thing, considering the fact that the Christans first stold the Yule/Winter Solisctice from the Pagans, and now there is no recgonition of the original holiday, and all the so called Christmass traditions of today were originally part of hte Pagan festival. I agree with everyones right to celebrate whatever holiday/religon they want, but I am tired of mine being completely ignored, when it is really the origional and where it call started from to begin with.
