Earlier this week, I saw A Charlie Brown Christmas
The Salvation Army purports to “preach the gospel of Jesus Christ and to meet human needs in His name without discrimination.” If that is the case, why is the Salvation Army checking on the immigration status of children during their toy drives? Seriously. WWJD. Become a member of the border patrol? Talk about taking the Christ out of Christmas. Even Santa delivers gifts to children around the world and I’m pretty sure he doesn’t share his naughty-or-nice list with the elves at US Immigration and Customs Enforcement.
One reply on “The Meaning of Christmas”
I worked for the Salvation Army for a week through a “temp” agency.” They would have meetings during which they prayed and during one of those meetings a higher up lady actually declared that hopefully Jesus Christ would return that very year. What does the return of Jesus imply according to orthodox Christian theology? The end of the world! At least for non-believers.
