In other parts of the galaxy...

In Romainia, the unthinkable.

A few evenings ago I had the honor and privledge to meet Cal Thomas, a journalist and TV personality on Fox News who is also a Believer in Christ. He has a very interesting column that has popped up the last few days on Townhall.

In light of what Mr. Thomas had to say, I find myself in conflicted positions. Cal Thomas is a person who writes very logicallly, so one can surmise that this is also the manner in which he thinks. It certianly come across in this piece. On the one had I agree with his idea of "So what if there is a way on Christmas..." because of the argument he makes that if you're not a Christian, this particular holy day tends to mean alot less to you, if it has any signifigance at all. Because of that, we should not expect those that are not Belivers in Christ to hold on high the occasion of Christmas that we do. I agree with this because it's logical and makes sense. However, on the other hand are John Gibson and Bill O'Riley (aslo of Fox) who believe there is this war on Christmas. This war is present because leftist organizations who hate Christians and seek to abolishing ANYTHING that is remotely Christian. I also see the creed that this carries because there are some very loud, very leftist organizations out there that would like nothingg better than to see our country become a government run welfare state that runs itself into the ground. I believe these people hate America, in terms of hating what America was founded on and what America stands for at it's core - conservative ideas. Instead they would rather craft America in their own image, and feel the need to abolish anything remotely "Christian" in order to do so, which I find amusing actually, as I maintain that America is no longer a Christian nation, or never was. I say this in light of the same argument for a Christian School, why does it have to be labeled as such, why can't it jsut be a normal school, where Christians happen to live? I ask the same about America. I would surmise that there are more trie belivers in China than in the USA, yet they certianly aren't seen as a Christian nation...

Just a thought...
