A Charlie Brown Christmas; Bare with me....

[Dana]

I know a lot of people are still uber religious in this day of age but do you think the whole scene with Linus is a bit past its day? People are more willing to discover things about Christmas that theyd always just assumed were parts of the Christian's holiday. Maybe I'm making too much of a cartoon or the fact it's teaching children old ways of thinking? I guess as an adult you look at older cartoons especially ones with religious aspects in a different light...

And there were in the same country shepherds abiding in the field, keeping watch over their flock by night.

And, lo, the angel of the Lord came upon them, and the glory of the Lord shone round about them: and they were sore afraid.

And the angel said unto them,

Fear not: for, behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy, which shall be to all people.

For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Saviour, which is Christ the Lord.

And this shall be a sign unto you; Ye shall find the babe wrapped in swaddling clothes, lying in a manger.

And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host praising God, and saying,

Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, good will toward men.

Actually the date is an old pagan festival, Christians just adopted it to convert the pagans. :thumbup

Oh and Santa is an anogram of Satan.

He also could stand to trim his beard.... pluck his brows.... lay off the cookies and milk..... and he'd better fit down my chimney while the fire's burning. Damn cold here.
