Advent is here.

I think that many Americans know that this is Christmas and not just Happy Holidays! However, Christianity and Christ and Christmas is under more attacks than ever before in our nation. And frankly, I am sick to my heart and getting angrier over our political correctness which denigrates God, the Bible and our traditions of some 200 years. And frankly, I say to those who are offended by Merry Christmas, I say,' Get over it!' We are not celebrating Kwanza, Ramadan, any Hindu or Budhist holiday or birthday. It is Christ's nativity and even if the silly Chicago City Council bans the new movie, The Nativity or tries to close down its annual Christmas festivities because some Muslims may be offended, I still say, 'Get over it!' When the Methodist Church and other mainline leftist churches take Onward Christian Soldiers out of their hymnals, we know we are revising Christian history and liturgy. Enough is enough. The Prince of Peace does not advocate terror bombings. He does not ask kids to tie dynamite packs to them to blow up other kids. He doesn't ask people to shack up and have illigitimate children. He loves all humanity, forgives them of their sins if they want them forgiven and offers grace, help, salvation, friendship. He does not blow up airplanes or start wars. No other religion today can say that since they usually don't have any eternal answers for life's trials. We celebrate Advent because historically God came down in human form to live a human life so as to understand human tears, fears, sins, and acts of goodness. He needed too. Humanity is frankly still a mess and needs Him more than ever. He came once 2000 years ago. He will come again The Bible says and seeing the world and its bias, hatred, and savagery weighted against the good deeds of many people, He needs to come again. That will be the Second and Final Advent. So, while we have the time, let us accept the love, grace, salvation offered to all of us freely. This is as good a time to do business with this Christ as any. Merry Christmas.
