"Evangelical Christian pastor Jerry Falwell has a message for Americans when it comes to celebrating Christmas this year: You're either with us, or you're against us."

1. As usual

he's taking on the tough problems.

C'mon Jerry, why don't you tackle poverty or homelessness or something that's really about charity and hope?

Oh yeah, you're a hypocritical bag of gas! :eyes:

Never mind.

9. christmas

is based on the pagan/wiccan winter Solstice. Christianity had to "develop" their holiday around this day.

6. Uh oh. Our master plan to DESTROY Christmas is under counterattack!

We better call for an emergency summitt on this issue immediately.

[bridgit]

11. i know huh, speak no matters of substance into the fundies white...

plastic carnation :hide:

[rateyes]

20. OK. Date, time, and place please...

but, you'll have to PM everybody you know and trust...don't want the trolls crashing the party.

[The Whiskey Priest]

12. Is he receiving financial backing from the credit card companies?

This year I am afraid he is SOL…..I gave at the gas pump and any discretionary income will go to keep my arse from freezing this winter. So, Jerry Fartwell can celebrate Christmas--he only has to beg a few bucks more for the nitwits that follow him.

[bridgit]

14. too true, friend...

:hi:

17. Hey, Jerry...

If it's "Friend or Foe" of Christmas...I'm a friend...

If it's "Friend or Foe" of you and your ridiculous, dumbass, cram your religion down everybody's throats brand of (un)Christianity...put me on the enemies list. Jerk.

And, I will do my shopping at Target this year...just to spite you..thank you for helping me know who to support...I hope your damned boycott backfires up your a** and gives you terminal heartburn.

30. Then why the hell would he be boycotting them? nt

[seabeyond]

18. dont let them take christmas away from me too. we arent in battle

with the right over christmas. it is mine as much as the right. the flag is mine as much as the right. christianity is mine as much as the right

they are taking this away from us, creating an illusion of a battle that isnt theirs so they can own christmas and make us fight soemthing we arent even fighting

[bridgit]

21. i let the great swirl of x-mas wash over me, then on christmas eve...

i lay my head down, and sing to myself wordlessly...

Silent night, holy night
All is calm, all is bright
Round yon Virgin Mother and Child
Holy Infant so tender and mild
Sleep in heavenly peace
Sleep in heavenly peace

Silent night, holy night!
Shepherds quake at the sight
Glories stream from heaven afar
Heavenly hosts sing Alleluia!
Christ, the Saviour is born
Christ, the Saviour is born

Silent night, holy night
Son of God, love's pure light
Radiant beams from Thy holy face
With the dawn of redeeming grace
Jesus, Lord, at Thy birth
Jesus, Lord, at Thy birth "

sure it's corny, but no one is going to take that from me not fall-well, not no one...
