I saw this cartoon posted today at this blog and absolutely fell in love with it!! You know that old saying, “if it sounds like a duck, walks like a duck and looks like a duck”? Well this cartoon nails the issue on the head!
I know a lot of Christians and conservatives get all uptight when “Merry Christmas” gets changed to “Happy Holidays”. I never understood why this is so. America is a melting pot, remember! We have lots of different faiths and beliefs here in our country, and some of them celebrate some of their doctrines at the same time around December.
This cartoon definitely calls us Christians out and asks us to wake up!
I know I might get some heat from my Christian friends, but I just gotta say what I think. What if we got rid of all the trash we bought at Christmas and spent that money to help the needy?
Relevant Magazine has a very good article entitled “Merry Consumerism” in their most recent issue regarding this subject. Click on over there and read it, I dare ya! While you’re at it, read this article detailing how we Christians obtained some of our beloved Christmas symbols, such as the Christmas Tree and Mistletoe.
So, let’s not be so uptight. Other people want to celebrate the season that is close to their beliefs. And 90% of people still call it Christmas for goodness sakes!
If you don’t want to read, than I highly recommend viewing the video below:
I empathize with Calvin’s plight. I’ve not shaved for over a week and this is all I have to show for it:
What’s going on here? This much jaw hair grows on my brother’s face in just about 4 hours. Don’t I share the same gene pool? So I ponder, like Calvin, why am I cursed with a thin beard? It just doesn’t seem fair!
What kind of beard would I grow if I could? A big viking beard that could be braided would be awesome! Something like Zakk Wylde….
I mean, what screams “metal god” more than long hair and a big beard?
Goodness this is funny! Jim is capping on BSG and totally frustrates Dwight! I know that Dwight was going to tell him that BSG is on hiatus until 2009 (like Lost) and it is a “re-imagined remake”! I sure felt for Dwight this time!
I’ve been putting it off for quite a while. I have never vocalized who I am going to vote for in this upcoming Presidential Election. McCain has never impressed me and I still really have no idea where Obama stands on anything.
So who has my vote? Well, she is the only one who has guts and can make the tough decisions. She knows how to work with the military and can keep a fleet together. If she thinks her opponent is unworthy of the office of President, she isn’t above rigging the election.
She is a woman of faith who has a vision for all of humanity! Most importantly though, if confronted by someone she thinks is an evil killer Cylon robot, she has no inhibition to shoot it at point blank range!
Give it up people! Let’s hear it for Laura Roslin of Battlestar Galactica fame!!!!! Roslin for President in 2008!!
This post was inspired by the following real shirt that is for sale. I really want to buy it, but I think my wife might divorce me. You can pick one up here!
