Easter Sunday, the most holy of days in the Christian church, just whizzed by us. It was celebrated by an estimated 210,000,000 people in the United States – roughly 63% of our population.
It is considered the holiest of days because Jesus of Nazareth was persecuted to die on The Cross – and was resurrected three-days later. He died for our sins – so that we would be saved; the fact he rose from death to enter Heaven is the miracle.
Sure this holy day is not as commercial what with all the wrapping paper, ribbons and bows, shopping days counted down from Thanksgiving, Santa Claus, carols, and official days off from work and school as Christmas is. But Easter belongs in this part of the calendar for true believers. Amen.
Imagine your boss from work was excited about having a party for the entire office to show appreciation for all the employees’ hard work and dedication. To demonstrate that appreciation he has scheduled a party, of sorts, at his sumptuous home – the one with the in-ground pool.
He expects every staff member to show their delight by RSVPing to this gala. You see, there will be a Smoke Master there preparing briskets, barbecued ribs, bratwurst, plus a caterer will be supplying an array of potato, macaroni, and seafood salads, to round out this gesture of thanks.
You gladly return your invitation with “Yes” for both you and your spouse, and begin your fasting diet until the two-month wait for this extravaganza is over.
But the wrinkle in this fine cloth comes in the form of the unexpected death of your mother. She was well, showing no signs of illness or discomfort in the months leading up to her untimely demise.
Funeral arrangements, as well as burial preparations need to be expedited; her house needs to be tended to, as do her finances and bills to prevent her estate from being legally extorted. Needless to say, there’s plenty to do, and quickly.
Gossip back at work is rampant that there may even be pony rides for children at the bosses’ party. Unfortunately, timing couldn’t be worse. The party and the funeral happen to coincide this Saturday.
Throughout this logistic hurricane, your boss should be expected to be more understanding, but he’s not. And those pony ride rumors suddenly include your name as someone using an excuse to not attend this first-of-its-kind shindig.
You were forced to choose and did: your mother’s funeral. It was a personal decision that was rather easy simply due to your affection, and the familial connection and love involved with blood relationships over less fly-by-night connections such as those as a mere employee.
And this is where we find ourselves – as Christians – following our Easter Sunday 2024.
El Hefe – Joseph Robinette Biden – proudly proclaimed March 31st as Transgender Day of Visibility, to help the smattering of transgendered individuals deal with “bullying,” “harassment,” and “discrimination,” according to the proclamation.
Once again, though, Biden missed the mark with staunch Christians when proclaiming March 31, 2024, a special day for sexual undecideds. Was this merely an oversight on the part of the White House?
Hardly. This “special” day for transgenders has been in existence for more than a dozen years. It just so happens that this year it coincided with Easter, and Biden chose poorly by recognizing the psychologically abnormal members of our society over Christians.
Still don’t believe this was intentional?
The annual White House Easter Egg Roll was forefront with Health and Human Services Secretary Xavier Becerra promising to honor the “great transgender, nonbinary, and two-spirit leaders” while promising to “double down on our commitment to push the tides of progress forward,” the New York Post asserts.

Rachel Levine, the male Assistant Secretary for Health, vowed to provide children who identify as transgender “across to the 988 program counselors with professionals specially trained to work with them,” according to the New York Post. That sounds awfully intentional to me.
It seems as though well-funded trans-activist organizations are behind this effort to exclude Christ’s followers in favor of the latest political oddball cause, largely to garner more votes come election time.
There you have it.
President Joe Biden and his gaggle of freaks chose the bosses’ barbecue picnic over the responsible option.
Voters should mark this on their calendars so that on November 5th, they can remember - without fail – for whom to cast their ballots.
On the other hand, they may get a pony ride along with all the business that accompanies the pony.
