HALLMARK XMAS flicks wax large among the Christmas junk most devoid of Christ but I've never heard a right-winger complain about them.
They're grotesquely materialistic, lavishly vulgar and superficial and, as I asked a Woman I know who has been binging on them so as to take her mind off of the disaster of Trump II, has anyone ever mentioned Jesus in any of them? She, who has watched scores of them over the years, couldn't recall one that did. And I'll leave out that they all have the frickin' same plot and use the most treadbare of movie and crap theater cliches over and over again. You could probably do a drinking game at guessing which of those cliches you were about to see though I'd advise against it. Unless you were as stupid as a . . . . um, troll, you'd probably all die of alcohol poisoning by the end of the crap.
But, then, the most pervasive and ultimate American messaging around Xmas, the commercials, never do, either. They are dedicated to the exact opposite to the Gospel of Jesus, the Epistles, Acts and, especially Revelation.
The best way to do Christmas would center on exactly what American Xmas doesn't, especially what gets on FOX Lies and the other imaginary command centers in the defense of "Christmas."
It's gotten so my favorite thing about Christmas is Advent, ignoring American Christmas, entirely. RMJ's is a good place to get a lot of that, in fact, he's started a week early. That's the kind of Christmas I need right this very minute and no one does Advent like him.
