It’s NOT About a Jolly Old Man in a Red Suit, Crowded Malls, and Max-ed Out Credit Cards

Progressives who continue to work for the total secularization of Christmas fail to accept the true meaning of the most cherished religious holiday in western culture.
Christmas is celebrated to herald the birth of Jesus Christ and the subsequent spread of the Gospel, which has gifted all of humanity with a new morality, the concept of individual freedom, and the belief that human equality is a gift from God.
America’s Declaration of Independence confirms that truth with the words, “ As we are endowed by our Creator with inalienable rights.”
Dinesh D’Souza, author of, What’s So Great About Christianity
, delivered a powerful speech titled, Created Equal How Christianity Shaped the West, September 16, 2008, at a Hillsdale College National Leadership Seminar in Colorado Springs.
In his speech, D’Souza states that, “Christianity is largely responsible for many of the principles and institutions that even secular people relish—chief among them equality and liberty.”
And Merry Christmas!

for a Democrat. Pray for John: He lives in the San Francisco Bay Area,
where people like Nancy Pelosi are actually considered
normal!
