Somehow I suspect Jesus Christ wouldn’t approve of Mr. O’Reilly.

Jon Stewart went on a long rant about this.
Christmas now starts the middle of Thanksgiving Day and goes to Jan 5?

I worked in retail. There are only two holidays: Halloween and Christmas. The Christmas songs in the store I worked in started the music on November 1. Thanksgiving is just a road mark between the two. Only war is for profits.

I guess a week after Nov. 1 there are pine-cones sprouting from your ears after 8 hours a day of that “music”. God I hate retail, the people working there have to smile all day when in reality they just want to murder the customers and spend some quality time on death row…

Christmas celebrations are pretty much a repackaging of the Germanic and saturnalian “pagan” traditions that were crushed by Christian oppression.
.
In other words, European Christians waged a war on all the things that were fun and merry about the winter solstice and only readopted them once they could make money off it, or control their masses. (No pun intended.)

Well, if anybody can throw their masses around it’s the Americans! :-)

The communist ACLU’s war on religion (except for islam) takes a back seat to the communist kenyancrats’ Wars on Capitalism, Freedom, Individual Rights…
