This just in from Times Square. As long as they let us keep our precious religious liberty, we'll sit back and let them defile Our Lord as much as they like. That's the American way! Soldiers of Christ? Us? Puh-leeze!

Wonder how people would've reacted over a "Keep the Chutzpah! / Drop the Chanukah." ad...
But yes, GMA - I wish Catholics in America would actually care about this kind of stuff and ACT to STOP it.
And I remember the happy birthday Mithras one from some years ago.
Every year is the same. Mithras, Sol Invictus, bla bla bla.
The dumb thing about that ad is.... it's the wrong holiday!

Of course, recognizing that would require their actually knowing something about Christianity rather than relying on their irrational, visceral hatred of it...
So, let me see: Christ, who alone through an ultimate sacrifice of love promises redemption to an obviously sick and dying mankind is a "myth" we should get rid of...but Coca-Cola's fatty Santa Claus whose whole sphere of morality seems to consist of a certain fantastical prescience of the children's annual "naughtiness" or "niceness" across the globe so that, as a rudimentary judge of merits, he may give or withhold them gifts on Christmas Eve, is what we should hold on to as rational men of the modern age.
Right.
You said it really well, EG.
Really really well. :)
