The War on Christianity Marches On

Now that the Nativity Story has opened, it's tim eto start the count of how many  arts reporters  mistakenly identify  Jesus' conception as the immaculate one.   Claudia Pulig gets the ball rolling.

For the record, I blame this clear affront to Christianity on the recent Democratic win in Congress and, oh, let's say Jim Webb.

It seems to me that the war on Christmas is being waged by the advertising, consumer product and retail industries who encourage Americans to spend money they do not have to buy frivolous gifts for people that don't need them.

Is that really the "true spirit of Christmas" that Faux News is trying to protect?

I went to twelve years of Catholic school and never understood the Immaculate Conception until only a few years ago. Thank god Wal-Mart has decided to fight back the evil pagan hordes by declaring "Merry Christmas". If it wasn't for that we'd be confusing the Ascension with the Assumption.

Zinn


  • "[O]ur time, our energy, should be spent in educating, agitating, organizing our fellow citizens in the workplace, in the neighborhood, in the schools. Our objective should be to build, painstakingly, patiently but energetically, a movement that, when it reaches a certain critical mass, would shake whoever is in the White House, in Congress, into changing national policy on matters of war and social justice."

Bono


  • "True religion will not let us fall asleep in the comfort of our freedom. Love thy neighbor is not a piece of advice, it's a command. ...

    God, my friends, is with the poor and God is with us, if we are with them. This is not a burden, this is an adventure."

The Reverend Al Sharpton


  • Ray wasn't singing about what he knew, 'cause Ray had been blind since he was a child. He hadn't seen many purple mountains. He hadn't seen many fruited plains. He was singing about what he believed to be.

    Mr. President, we love America, not because of all of us have seen the beauty all the time.

    But we believed if we kept on working, if we kept on marching, if we kept on voting, if we kept on believing, we would make America beautiful for everybody.

Marx


  • ''With adequate profit, capital is very bold. A certain 10 percent will ensure its employment anywhere; 20 percent will produce eagerness, 50 percent positive audacity; 100 percent will make it ready to trample on all human laws; 300 percent, and there is not a crime which it will not scruple, nor a risk it will not run, even to the chance of its owner being hanged.''
