Merry Christmas.. as in "Christ"

Well, someone sent me this parody of 'Twas Night Before Christmas and I so enjoyed it and agree with it that I just had to post it. It is cute in itself, but is scary in that the facts are true and I don't think people are realizing that their freedoms are being slowly taken away.

Mind you, I agree with giving due to any holidays in commemoration of certain people such as Martin Luther King, Presidents, Veterans etc etc or to allow the schools to take off for certain religious holidays as Jewish Holidays.

Why has everyone become so PC as to not offend someone at the mention of God. Offend someone because you believe in something and someone else does not? Give me a break! It seems as though God-related issues receive more persecution than anything else. (Check out the cases before the Supreme Court -- disgraceful).

Anyway, here is the newly penned 'Twas the Weeks Before Christmas (author unknown) -- enjoy :)
and tell me what you think.

'Twas the weeks before Christmas When all through our land,
Not a Christian was praying, Nor taking a stand.

See the PC Police had taken away,
The reason for Christmas - no one could say.

The children were told by their schools not to sing,
About Shepherds and Wise Men and Angels and things.

It might hurt people's feelings, the teachers would say
"December 25th is just a 'Holiday'."

Yet the shoppers were ready with cash, checks and credit
Pushing folks down to the floor just to get it!
CDs from Madonna, an X BOX, an I-pod
Something was changing, something quite odd.

As Targets were hanging their trees upside down
At Lowe's the word Christmas - was no where to be found.
At K-Mart, Staples, Penny's and Sears
You won't hear the word Christmas, it won't touch your ears.
Inclusive, sensitive, Di-ver-si-ty are
words that are used to intimidate me.

At the top of the agenda, there arose such a clatter
To eliminate Jesus, in all public matter.
And we spoke not a word, as they took away our faith
Forbidden to speak of salvation and grace.
The true Gift of Christmas was exchanged and discarded
The reason for the season, stopped before it started.

So as you celebrate "Winter Break"
under your "Holiday Tree"
Sipping your Starbucks, listen to me!
Choose your words carefully. Choose what you say!
Shout
"MERRY CHRISTMAS!!"
not Happy Holiday !

DO NOT BE ASHAMED TO PASS THIS ON !!!!!
