A Few Quick Thoughts on Christmas

1. Pope Benedict XVI is preaching the truth again.

2. This interesting post of the clash of the religious and secular holiday is a must read.

3. My son's M.I.N.O. (Montessori in name only) daycare has a "holiday" tree. -- The camel's back is almost breaking. I wouldn't care too much, but I think it is fair to expect a Montessori school to be Catholic.

4. Kwanzaa is not a real holiday. Look at the etymology of the word holiday (Holy day). Kwanzaa was created as a tool of the civil rights movement. That may be a worthy and noble cause, but a holiday it is not.

5. If Kwanzaa is a holiday, then so is Festivus.
