CHRISTMAS!  Season's Greetings? What the heck does that mean? I don't know about you, but this is the only time of year I see vendors set up in parking lots and on street corners selling holiday trees. Why is that? Because they're selling Christmas trees! In case you politically correct, left-leaning peaceniks out there have forgotten, it's Christmas time for the vast majority of North Americans. The "C-word" has been under fire for the past several years after some joker somewhere got the idea that it might be offensive to some people if we call the holiday by its name, Christmas. Christmas is the day when Christians celebrate the birthdate of their religion's prophet, Jesus Christ. While the meaning of Christmas has been watered down in mainstream secular society with Santa Claus and rampant commercialism, Christmas is still a sacred tradition in North American culture that transcends ethnic and religious groups. You see, the vast majority of non-Christians don't have a problem with Christian North Americans celebrating Christmas. Jesus is mentioned in the Koran, the Islamic Holy Book. People of all backgrounds participate in and organize Christmas parties and Christmas fundraisers. Other religions have special holidays and festivities at around the same time as Christmas, and if I am not mistaken, these holidays are meant to be joyous and positive, just like Christmas. So why would anyone be offended if I wished them a Merry Christmas? I would certainly not be offended if someone mistakenly wished me to have a Happy Hanukkah. I believe the growing avoidance of the C-word in the last two months of the year is part of a big hoax. I think if you did a poll asking people if they are offended by the C-word, the few respondents who would say yes would be almost unanimously white, self-loathing members of families of Christian descent (and maybe one or two Al-Qaeda supporters). Why should we care what a few Humbugs think about Christmas? Why should we ruin a festive tradition enjoyed by many in an effort to appear "sensitive" to the needs of a few people who probably don't even exist? If you want to be miserable, I have the solution: January is coming! No Christmas then, just three months of winter and bitter cold without a holiday in sight. So, on behalf of Canada Post and all my fellow Lie-beral party supporters, I want to wish you and yours a Merry Christmas and prosperous New Year. And don't forget to bookmark this site for when your prosperity arrives! |
