Closing the door on Christmas

I get so frustrated as I listen to the news every night through the Christmas season. It seems like there are constant attacks on our right to have Christmas trees, parties, Nativity scenes, lights, music, you name it!

This morning I heard a story about a woman suing a school district because they were putting on a Rudolph the Red Nose Reindeer concert! What? The song says, "And then one foggy Christmas Eve." So, this woman doesn't want her daughter exposed to this! I have had just about enough!

I'll bet if she is a working woman she will take Christmas Day off and expect to be paid for it. I bet she expects the same on Easter. They are considered Federal holidays in this country. It's not Winter Holiday - it's recognized as a Christian Holiday and we celebrate it as a nation.

Does anyone think that maybe there's a correlation these days with the downturn our country is experiencing. We've turned our backs on God and all things Godly. Aren't we supposed to be a blessed nation, above all others? Well, if we keep going we won't receive those blessings because we are trying so hard to be like the rest the world.

I find it rather ironic that we have opened our doors as a nation to so many and embrace other cultures and beliefs and how are we being repaid? They want to shut the door on our Christian traditions.

It's time for us to NO, this isn't going to happen. Boycott those businesses that refuse to say Merry Christmas, such as Costco. On the other hand, support and thank those businesses that do say Merry Christmas in their advertising and displays. Write Merry Christmas on your cards instead of Seasons Greetings. Display your Nativity Scenes proudly. Let your congressman know how you feel about any legislation that takes Christianity out of our nation. Write letters to the editor. And, shout out Merry Christmas every time you get a chance!
