The Crhistmas season has rolled around again. And the proponents of multi-culturism and and anti-religion zelots are at it again. At one time in this country we could celebrate our Christmas traditions without being branded insensitive or called religious fundamentalists or any other of a number of anti-conservative and anti-religion slurs. And Crhistmas is a long standing tradition in this country and the way that we have traditionally celebrated it. Yes, it has changed somewhat over the years since the founding of our country. It became comercialised and embraced by the business world since it was the most profitable season for businesses. But it was still Christmas. And we were free to celebrate it or not as we pleased. If you were of a religion that did not celebrate it, that was ok. You could ignore the celebrations or just join in, all the while retaining your own holiday traditions.
But nowadays, we are supposed to embrace multi-culturism and be "sensitive" to the traditions of other cultures and totally seperate our government offices from any hint of religion and celebration of Christmas. In other words we are supposed to abandon the traditions of our country so as not to insult or upset those in this country of other religions or the athiests who believe in nothing. We are expected to do thiis even though around 80 percent or more of the people in this country profess to be of one christian religion or another and who celebrate and have celebrated Christmas for generations. We are now expected to give up our traditions as being of less imprtance and celetrate the traditions and/or beliefs of others so as to be "sensitive" to these other beliefs.
So now, even in the business world, the celebration of our traditional christmas is disappearing. Its now the "Holiday Season" rather than the "Christmas Season". Any hint of tradtional or religious conotations has to be removed from public display on government property. The liberals have demanded that even our schools and children cannot celebrate Christmas. It is the "holidays". And the celebration of the holiday season in other countries is what is of importance and is what must be studied and celebrated in our schools. Any and all hints of the traditional American Christmas must be removed. And most especially any hint of Christian religious celebration of Christmas. Other religions and their celebrations and traditions is allowed of course.
At first it was the removal of the manger scene from public view. Then the removal of the colored lights and only display of the white lights. Now christmas trees even are under attack and must be removed or only displayed on private property. Where is our country? Why is it that other countries or other cultures traditions must be more important than our own?
Political correctness has gone made in this country. It is going too far, it has gone too far for a long time now. And it must end. Our American culture is what is important. Our American traditions are what is important. Why should I or my children be forced to celebrate the traditions and holidays of other countries. They are not our tradtions. It is time to end this multi-culturism and political correctness that is destroying America as we have known it and as it should be. We are Americans. You can celebrate our traditions and holidays or not, as you please. But you have no right to force the rest of us to stop celebrating our traditions and holidays. You have no right to destory our traditional celebration of Christmas just because you think that we should be "sensitive" to yours.
So I am calling for the end to "political correctness" and the celebration of "multiculturism" This is America and we WILL celebrate our American tradtions and holidays. You are welcome to join in or not. But the rest of us, which is the majority of those in this country, will celebrate. And you will not say whether we can or not.
So to all of you, I say..."" M E R R Y C H R I S T M A S ""
