Losing Christmas

Maybe it started with writing Xmas instead of Christmas, or maybe it started with hawking Christmas before we had eaten Thanksgiving Dinner. Maybe it is really impossible to put your finger on when we started losing Christmas and the Christmas spirit. It really doesn't matter when it started, all that matters is that we and the world are poorer for the lose.

There was a time that the Christmas Season meant Peace, Love, Faith and Fellowship of all mankind. Now, it is just a time of spending and buying. It is a time that you have to be politically correct and say, "Happy Holidays", instead of "Merry Christmas". Being political correct doesn't allow for celebrating the Birth of Christ, but it does encourage spending money and encourage ill will around the world.

In simpler times, we could share our faith with our friends and family, now if you are a person of faith and want to share the Miracle of Christmas, it is frowned upon by those who want to destroy Christmas and all that it stands for. You have to wonder why anyone would want to destroy a Season of Miracles that promotes Peace and Love.

If we continue down this current path, we will lose Christmas and all that it stands for. What a great lose that will be for the entire world and all of us that live on this Blue Marble. So what is the answer, it really is quite simple. We can't let political correction or liberal viewpoints rule and destroy a time of year that means so much to so many. We need to share our faith and love to all, regardless of our faith. Christmas is a time of Miracles and a time to pray for peace for all mankind.

Cities, towns, corporations, and individuals should not be ashamed of sharing symbols of the Seasons. Deck the Halls, Trim the Tree, Hang the Wreath and put out the Nativity. In this country, it has always been the majority rules, not the minority and this goes for Christmas.

So Merry Christmas to all and to all a good night.
