The War on Christmas is not a conspiracy theory whispered among traditionalists; it is a full-blown campaign against one of the most cherished holidays in the world.
Industries swap out “Merry Christmas” for sterile “Happy Holidays.” Schools ban nativity scenes. Governments sideline Christian traditions to appease a vocal few. From Starbucks’ minimalist red holiday cups to city councils ditching public Christmas trees, the holiday season is under siege. And this sad affair is not just happening in America—it is occurring globally.
Across Europe, centuries-old Christmas traditions are being sanitized. Germany’s Christmas markets face criticism for being too “Christian.” France, the land of liberty, equality, and fraternity, avoids public crèches to “maintain secularism.”
Even in predominantly Christian nations, the word “Christmas” itself is often replaced with phrases like “Winter Festival.” The intent? To erase the sacred and historical roots of the holiday, leaving behind a bland, commercialized shell.
From BPR:
The British government’s zeal for censorship has even crept into religious institutions with the Church of England now warning clergy about ‘problematic words’ in Christmas carols.
Priests have reportedly been told to avoid language in the traditional holiday hymns that might imply that Jesus Christ is the ‘true Messiah’ because some people might be offended.
The latest front in this war on Christmas comes from the United Kingdom, where the Church of England is being urged to tone down its Christmas carols.
Yes, in the land of Dickens and “God Rest Ye Merry, Gentlemen,” the very songs that define Christmas are now seen as “problematic.”
An email sent to clergy in the Birmingham diocese advises against using language in carols that might suggest Jesus Christ is the ‘true Messiah.’ Why? Because it might offend someone.
The email urges priests to “use language that won’t add further confusion or tension.” Confusion? In a church? About the core belief that Jesus is the Messiah? It is like telling a bakery not to emphasize bread.
Canon Chris Sugden, a former member of the General Synod, was not having it. He slammed the idea, pointing out the absurdity of altering sacred traditions.
He asked:
Would you expect a Jewish or Hindu festival to change its rituals because someone might object? Who exactly are these people the Church thinks it’s offending?
The first question was on point. Afterall, the Church’s mission is to proclaim faith, not dilute it for fear of complaints.
And we—on the outside looking in—all know damn well the answer to the second question. England, like most of Europe is being overcome by Islam—and Islam is not tolerant of other religions. This is no longer a question of “political correctness” you fools.
Oddly though, clergy are baffled. One vicar remarked that the Church of England has “really lost the plot.” Another noted that even Vladimir Putin does not order Orthodox churches to censor their carols.
Someone really should clue in the English clergy. The answer to your problems is Islam. Wake up and smell the bacon (pun intended).
The backlash has been swift. Social media erupted, with users mocking the idea of watering down carols.
One critic wrote:
People attending Christmas services want them sung properly.
Another suggested that clergy unhappy with traditional hymns should reconsider their roles. Sam Margrave, a member of the General Synod, hit the nail on the head:
Sing loud and proud. We have a great heritage of hymns in this Christian nation.
Sadly, though, this is not simply about Christmas carols. This watering down of everything Christian is about the erosion of traditions that have defined cultures for centuries. Christmas is more than tinsel and presents; it is a celebration of faith, family, and heritage. Wake up, England, and save yourselves, your culture, and your Christian religion from the invasion of moslems and their intolerant Islam.
Again, this is not simply a case of institutions like the Church of England capitulating to “political correctness” or the fear of alienating the very people they are supposed to serve. Your culture is being taken from you and not by the politics of old, rather by the invading moslems who have overtaken your government.
The U.K., Orwell’s birthplace, is beginning to feel a lot like 1984. Language is sanitized. Traditions are stripped of meaning. And faith, the bedrock of many societies, is relegated to whispers. But Orwell’s warning and his prophecy were slightly incorrect in that he failed to mention Islam as the cause for the joy of Christmas being under threat.
Final thoughts: You dumb bast**ds invited in Islam and now your nation is falling to Sharia.
And your foolish search for a cause of complaint against your cherished holiday—Christmas—is sadly not humorous in the least.
Collectively, you Englanders—as well as all Europeans—must pull your collective heads from your collective anal orifices, properly identify the problem confronting you, then go about solving the problem. Wringing your hands and mumbling nonsense about “political correctness” will only hasten your demise.
