Warning: For anyone so averse to a baby – Baby Jesus, to be
exact – you may stop reading now.
Today’s story regards Christmas carols.
Christmas arrives each year and is celebrated world-wide by
Christians who believe this the day Jesus was born. Jesus is the Christian’s savior who gave His
life for mankind.
To celebrate this sacred and joyous time of the year, people
of all ages sing and listen to Christmas songs.
Not all Christmas songs are religious, though.
“Winter Wonderland,” is one of those secular tunes that
pops-up during the Yule season which can be very confusing to those people who
fear Baby Jesus.
It seems as though a whole cadre of do-gooders have devoted
their lives to saving the stupider of the population from ear pollution and
acquiring equally numbing fear of Jesus.
These do-gooders have been systematically removing any sense
of Jesus, Christmas songs, and idea that this Christian holiday is a Christian
holiday.
This, and a few other carols, has been giving these do-gooders
fits because, it is not religious. The
word “Christmas” appears nowhere therein but gives these do-gooders fits
because “Winter Wonderland” is a traditional Christmas song.
“Deck the Halls,” is another secular tune that irritates the
secularists for much the same reason.
Somehow, somewhere Christmas became more offensive to the
populace than the “N-word” trump card of words.
But, I love Christmas and Christmas songs. I have been buying Christmas-related albums
for years, with numbers approaching 200 albums and CDs. Oddly enough, my ears haven’t caught on fire,
and blood hasn’t leaked from my eyes since listening to these festive holiday
songs.
The odd thing is that each one of these albums/CDs has
pretty much the same songs on each…the varying factor is the performer and
their style that makes these carols differ from one another.
Even songs like “Blue Christmas” are considered non-secular
because of that all-offensive word, “Christmas.”
Too bad America
Heck, Christmas and Jesus are so popular, even notable
non-Christians like Neil Diamond, Kenny-G, and Barbra Streisand get on the
bandwagon and help celebrate by producing television shows and Christmas
music. That’s a pretty powerful statement.
Until this epidemic is summarily dealt with by turning a
deaf ear to those ninnies, Merry Christmas to all!
