“What are the single most important words in the Bible?” What’s
your answer??? Ever thought about it??? There’s an interesting man… Dennis Prager,
who gave a most intriguing answer, and then backed it up with a good argument,
Genesis I-I “In the beginning, God created the Heavens and the
Earth,” To Quote Dennis Prager, “If this isn’t true, then nothing else matters.
This is the very foundation of what we believe.” (?)
Therefore the single most important date in all of history… Is
when this God, who created the heavens and the earth, became a Man and dwelt
among us... Duhhhh….
Now I admit, it’s not the most important feast in the Church…
That would be Easter… But Christmas is the most important date in history….
And we as
modern Americans, how do we celebrate it??? “With a Flip a Switch Christmas” ©
We pull the non-flammable fake tree out of the attic, spray it
with Christmas smell, stick it in its spot, hang its decorations on it and plug that sucker in… Along with the tree,
we drag the rest of the Christmas shit out of the attic and hang the wreath on
the door, plug it in, hang the lights on the house, plug them in… Put the
Christmas tablecloth, center piece and assorted Christmas crap on the table.
Then stand back, flip a switch and wa-la it Christmas… Fa-la-la and the whole
works…
We watch an Andy Williams Christmas, We watch a Charlie Brown
Christmas… A Grinch Stole Christmas….on and on and poor ole Morley was dead as
a doornail….
We buy a shit load of a crap, give it to each other…. Go to each
others parties… piss and moan about our lives and speak of Christmas Cheer… And
feel all warm and fussy and Christmassy Ahhhhh…..
We sit around in our easy chairs, with a beer in one hand,
turkey leg in the other, a 60’ Flat Screen deluxe HD 4-on-the-floor type Boob
Tube… (ya know there’s a reason they call it that). And bitch about paying too damn many taxes,
supporting too many freeloaders, Them sons-of-bitches better not try and take
my guns, ya know they shouldn’t be aborting all them babies. Damn money ain’t
any good anymore, I just need to win the lottery, are all these people
stupid??? Damn schools don’t teach anything anymore…. And the Media is so full
of shit…
And I bet you think you’re one of the good guys too, I vote
republican, I tote a gun, and I’m for the constitution. Oh…
All the hoop-la that goes on this time of year, all the going
into debt to buy a mountain of crap that nobody wants, and the parties and the
patting each other on the back and telling ourselves how great we are… Wishing
each other happy holiday or Merry Christmas, depending on who they are? And what they
believe?
And so we celebrate the single most importance date in history
by flipping a few switches and saying… “it’s Christmas”…ta-daaaa ” Happy I know
its somebody’s birthday. (?) Let me at
the cake…”
Whatever this glaring display of lights and wan-ton blaring of
music.… is????
What ever all this is???
It ain’t
Christmas… ©
