Merry ******MAS

Wow. I truly wonder how this holiday will ever continue. I understand it has been commercialized and all but what about it't true origin? What happened to the real meaning of christmas? Doesn't anyone remember CHRIST?
Jesus' birth is the whole precedent behind this holiday and He is being taken out. It's not even a slow process. It starts out as simple as replacing Christ with an "X" but then continues on to the employee who gets fired from their job for saying "Merry Christmas" instead of "HAPPY HOLIDAYS"
How absurd can we get people? What doesn't the populus understand? It is a christian Holiday. A day for CHRISTians by CHRISTians to remember CHRIST! I may sound a bit angry but its just a passion for the true meaning of this holiday to be allowed to exist.
There is a story out of Wisconsin (I believe) that there was a play that has been performed for the past 40 years in this community. This past year it was being thwarted by a few liberals in this community and was discontinued (shortly) because of its religious themes. This theatrical performance has been a traditon for 40 years. 40 YEARS! Just because a few people have a hard time with a "christian" theme, they cannot deny this communities traditions. Where would we be without traditions? What would we have to look back upon and remember from whence we came?
Another story that really made me chuckle to myself was when little kids in a school choir were asked to sing a "TRADITIONAL" CHRISTmas carol and when the words (KING,SAVIOR,LORD) were sung the children were asked to hum them due to their extreme religious connotation. If the children continued to sing the words they were removed from the choir permenantly. WHAT IS GOING ON IN THE WORLD OUT THERE?
Please just understand that this holiday is pure with intent to celebrate the most significant birth of all history. A saviour was born to this world. A saviour that came to love the world and teach them to love, a saviour who came to set men and women free from all of the baggage that they are just figuring they need to just get used to. This HOLYday is a favorite time of the year for more than just the reason of giving and receiving gifts. It represents a new life, a chance to taste eternity, a great time for celebrating a great event that has had great effects on the entire world. I wish that CHRIST and christmas could once again be joined as it has been. Afterall there would only be '' MAS" without CHRIST>>>
