Title: Festivus
Post by: BC_cheque on December 24, 2017, 04:03:36 pm
Hello Bonjour.

I am celebrating after nine months of sobriety (haha) and I am extra grateful this year for my family.

I hope you all are having a wonderful holiday season too.

Happy Holidays/Merry Christmas, whatever you want to say.

Drink and be merry tonight.

Other than getting over colds caught from the minions last week, Christmas is looking good. Life for us is very good these days and I hope the same goes for all of you. Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays etc.

Congrats!!!  That's great news!

To you and everyone here, have a Merry Christmas!  For those that aren't from Christian families, have a Merry Christmas too since Christmas doesn't have basically anything to do with Christ anymore anyways, so enjoy your presents and Santa & Home Alone movies with your family! 

I live and work amongst different "fresh-off-the-boat" immigrants from non-Christian cultures and it's curious to see that they like to take part in Christmas too, with Xmas trees and gift giving and Xmas lights and wishing me a Merry Christmas.

Remember the reason for the season! If your Yuletide doesn't have the Julfadr, you just have ... tide.

If it applies to anyone here, I would like to thank anyone who worked the holiday to look after the needs of others, whatever they were.

Christmas is the one time of year when people of all religions come together to worship Jesus Christ!

True.  We're all into Jewish guys today. 😅

For Christians it certainly is. For the rest of the world it's more like when people come together and celebrate leprechauns on March 17. The leprechaun being Santa.

Anyone ever notice how white baby Jesus is?

Jesus was from the Middle East 2000 years ago....   he wasn’t white with blonde hair!  Haha

Here’s an interesting article by a Christian who thinks it matters what colour Jesus is depicted as:  https://www.christianitytoday.com/ct/2016/april/why-jesus-skin-color-matters.html

(You only get to read half the article, but the point is made by then).

Good article about a salient point, especially today. I am as pasty white as they come but I remember back in the day, after I had the opportunity to study geography classes in school, I asked my mom one year as we approached Christmas if JC was white. She said no and confirmed my suspicions that not a lot of white people are born in Nazareth. She also pointed out that different cultures who accept Christ portray him as their own, i.e. a black Christ, yellow Christ, etc. That made some sense to me. Any case, end of the day I'm not religious so I guess I'll burn in hell. So Merry Xmas and pass the popcorn.

I picture Jesus looking like JJ Abrams or a young Steven Spielberg.

Old news and nobody cares.  You libtards are so predictable.  I’m surprised you haven’t posted anything about the winter solstice yet! 🤣

It's actually a covert operation in the War on Christmas but shhh....

Surely to gawd you have re thought that and may wish to correct? "All religions"?
