This is an outrage!
Santas in Australia’s largest city have been told not to use Father Christmas’s traditional “ho ho ho” greeting because it may be offensive to women, it was reported Thursday.
Sydney’s Santa Clauses have instead been instructed to say “ha ha ha” instead, the Daily Telegraph reported.
One disgruntled Santa told the newspaper a recruitment firm warned him not to use “ho ho ho” because it could frighten children and was too close to “ho”, a US slang term for prostitute.
“Gimme a break,” said Julie Gale, who runs the campaign against sexualising children called Kids Free 2B Kids.
“We are talking about little kids who do not understand that “ho, ho, ho” has any other connotation and nor should they,” she told the Telegraph.
Thank the Lord it hasn’t happened here. Yet. But it very easily could. We’re already reaching the point where forbidding Santa to wish people a merry “C——-s” is realistic. How long until Santa can’t even use the very words by which he’s always defined himself, merely because those words have been co-opted by a cadre of ignorant rapping thugs?
Political correctness is secularism’s tyranny. It will lead this nation straight into the arms of Atheism, Satanism, and Islamism. Look what it’s done to Australia, a formerly Christian and mighty nation now trembling in fright at Indonesian Muslims and Turkish riff-raff.
Don’t let the liberals turn America into another Australia. These seemingly minor battles are the thin end of the wedge. Give a moonbat an inch, he’ll take a mile. We’d be better off tossing these loons into the sea than let them harm a single hair on Santa’s head.

I can tell our Christ-mas file is going to fill up fast this year. The grinch is hard at work. Lowes had the gall to call Christmas Trees “Family Trees” in their catalog. I’ve got several more stories in the anti-Christmas stack.
Every anti-Christian, anti-Christmas liberal deserves a lump of coal in their stocking this year, if not a lump of something else.

I got that from a stand-up comic act that i saw on TV some years back.
Seriously, though – I’ve known my share of “hard-line” Christians who will have NOTHING to do with the whole “Santa” thing – & they won’t let their kids near it either – because, to them, it detracts from the religious aspects of the holiday. I’m suprised that you folks aren’t of a similar mindset.

The left won’t be satisfied until we are all out in some farm field, naked worshiping and the sun. I am sick and tired of secularists trying to force their weird superstitions on to us. What ever happened to the traditional Christmas of Santa giving presents to the Baby Jesus? Why is that so evil?

Dear Mr. Sisyphus,
The whole discussion about Santa is one that we must approach carefully. I can certainly understand your outrage at the current movement by crazed Australian moonbats. (What do you expect? The country was populated with criminals in the first place.) Having Santa Claus say “ha-ha-ha” is ridiculous. If one is going to play Santa, he must say “ho-ho-ho” to be believed.
Therein lies the problem, though. In our home, we only teach our children the truth. And that truth does not allow us to promote the lie that is Santa Claus. Imagine true Christian parents telling their children the following blasphemous lies:
1. Santa can see you at all times and knows every bad and good thing you do.
2. Santa is able to be more than one place at a time and has the ability to visit every house on earth in the same night (well, except for the Muslim, Jewish, Buddhist, and Hindu ones).
3. Santa lives in a mysterious place up North that no one has ever seen (even with Google Earth), but we’re all supposed to believe it’s there.
It is dangerous to tell these lies to your children. How will they ever believe the truths in the Bible if their parents lie to them about these impossibilities and then later tell them they are lies? How does lying to children about Santa teach them to always trust their parents’ guidance? It doesn’t! The answer is to always be truthful to your children.
At our house, we know there is no Santa Claus. (We teach our children to respect other families by not spilling the beans, though.) I do fill stockings for the kids, but only with Christian toys and books that help foster their knowledge of the Lord. Our kids really enjoy waking up Christmas morning and sneaking down to peek in their stockings before church.
I’ll leave you with this thought on the subject:
Zachariah 2:6: “Ho, ho, come forth, and flee from the land of the north, saith the LORD: for I have spread you abroad as the four winds of the heaven, saith the LORD.”
That ought to clear things up.

Seeing as how you’re fixated on sitting on grown mens laps, getting pinched and squealing like a pig, I won’t feed your Santa or baby Jesus sexual fantasy Swarty McNugget……..
Saint Nicholas (Greek: Άγιος Νικόλαος , Agios Nikolaos, “victory of the people”) is the common name for Saint Nicholas, a Lycian saint and Bishop of Myra (in modern-day Antalya province, Turkey). He was born during the third century in the village of Patara. He had a reputation for secret gift-giving, but is now commonly identified with Santa Claus. Nicholas was never officially canonised; his legend simply evolved among the faithful.[1]In 1087 his remains were abducted and removed to Bari in southern Italy, so that he is also Saint Nicholas of Bari. Among Orthodox Christians, the historical Saint Nicholas is remembered and revered. Saint Nicholas is the patron saint of sailors, merchants, archers, children, and students in Greece, Belgium, Bulgaria, Georgia, Russia, the Republic of Macedonia, Slovakia, Serbia and Montenegro. He is also the patron saint of Barranquilla (Colombia), Bari (Italy), Amsterdam (Netherlands), Beit Jala in the West Bank of Palestine and Russia. In 1809, the New-York Historical Society convened and named Sancte Claus the patron saint of Nieuw Amsterdam, the Dutch name for New York. Thus, Saint Nicholas could also be considered as the patron saint of New York.
As the patron saint also of sailors, Nicholas is claimed to have been a sailor or fisherman himself. More likely, however, is that one of his family businesses involved managing a fishing fleet. When his parents died, Nicholas received his inheritance but is said to have given it away to the poor.
…..Santa Claus aka Saint Nicholas is also considered the patron saint of giving and charity, a concept alien to most hard core Conservatives.

So the real war against Christmas is from greedy heathenish Conservatives.

“What ever happened to the traditional Christmas of Santa giving presents to the Baby Jesus? Why is that so evil?”
Hokay, so if Santa Claus is Saint Nicholas, how did he go back in time to give gifts to the baby Jesus? Did God give him the holy ability to do so?
Or just, when was one of the three wisemen dressed in red velvet with a sleigh drawn by flying reindeer? One might think that the other wisemen would envy him that.
I have only seen anything like that once, and it was a yard ornament plywood cutout of mickey dressed as Santa giving gifts to a baby doll, which seemed even more blasphemous.
Either way, while the political correctness being forced upon the santas in the article is as ridiculous as the article claims, Santa is still a representation of the secular version of Christmas, whether or not his origins lie within a nonsaint.

The nazis were the original white supremacists, you folks are their offshoots. You constantly rant against people that are not white.
The nazis were notorious for torturing and killing those that thought contrary to their own ways. You folks are constantly caqlling for the mass murders and torture of those that disagree with your way of thinking.
The nazis wanted to rule by the force of their military to guarantee no one opposed them and lived. You folks are doing the same by your comments that we should be forced to abide by your rules or be put to death.
We believe in free thought, something both you and the nazis opposed.
We believe in the freedom to choose our own way of life and the freedom to choose and follow our own religious beliefs, you and the nazis don’t believe in freedom at all.
We believe in helping those that are in need. You and the nazis only believe in persecuting them.
We believe that all men are created equal. You and the nazis both believe yourselves to be superior, that in itself is a sign of dementia.
So, who should call who Nazi?

Is that transitive dominatrix you two have hooked up with grinding your’ backsides so hard that your’ thinking is that messed up? Jesus was unemployed because His stepfather Joseph made enough money in the Augustain economic miracle for Christ to retire early. That is not poverty, that is leisure class. Jesus was upset at the rising nanny state under Emperor Tiberius with it bread and circuses for the poor. With the degradation of the poor the resulted there was a definite collapse in public morality and Jesus was mobilizing His followers to counteract that. Judas was just a Pro-Pathan moonbat who wanted to tax the rich and Pontus Pilate was an activist judge.

Spambrother,
Your’ auto-asphyxiation habit is clearly killing brain cells for you to make such an absurd statement. Jesus at no point ever called for the overthrow of the Roman Empire. It was His enemies, the temple tax and spend proto-Democratic Pharisees who accused Him of it in their talking points. It would be ridiculous to suggest that Jesus while calling for a return to God’s authority would call for anarchy since God is the source of all law. The fact that Jesus was, and is, pro-law and order is show by the fact He allowed Himself to be executed even though it was well within His powers to stop it.
Comment by BJ Tabor — November 16, 2007 @ 11:40 am |

The Pharisee’s are people like you. Another word is Charlatans.

Copy-pasta
“The modern custom can be traced to 16th century Germany; Ingeborg Weber-Kellermann (Marburg professor of European ethnology) identified as the earliest reference a Bremen guild chronicle of 1570 which reports how a small fir was decorated with apples, nuts, dates, pretzels and paper flowers, and erected in the guild-house, for the benefit of the guild members’ children, who collected the dainties on Christmas day. Another early reference is from Basel, where the tailor apprentices carried around town a tree decorated with apples and cheese in 1597.”

Now now, I don’t think we should condemn an idea, especially one whose most important element is agape, on the grounds of its worst adherents.
Also, you give yourself away when you say ‘in the name of’- Christianity is just used as the excuse most often. If not it, then people will invoke something else – the Burmese SPDC use Buddhism to ‘justify’ genocide against the Karen and Mon people, yet I hear you recommend it. What gives?

He said, “Blessed are the poor in spirit.” That’s a little different, you goose-stepping Helioleftist loon. Really, even by your standards that’s incredibly disingenuous.
Lo, and I quote Luke 6:20 –
και αυτος επαρας τους οφθαλμους αυτου εις τους μαθητας αυτου ελεγεν μακαριοι οι πτωχοι οτι υμετερα εστιν η βασιλεια του θεου
I know you speak Greek, Sisyphus, but for those who can’t be bothered to learn it –
And he lifted up his eyes on his disciples, and said, Blessed be ye poor: for yours is the kingdom of God.
I don’t see any mention of ‘in spirit’.

“Blessed be ye poor: for yours is the kingdom of God.”
And that is the real meaning of Christmas along with “Peace on Earth” and “Good Will to Men”.
Time to vote the pro-war candidates out of office.

Druid, seriously, learn to spell. I’m surprised ednote didn’t bash you on it yet, nor would i blame him in this case.
am i the only one who thinks that “ednote” reminds me of “deathnote”?

LOL at people who manage to both believe in the “War On Christmas” and that the commercialized b*stardization of St. Nicholas is somehow more important than the real thing.

Also, why are you so afraid to say the name of the holiday? Why are you censoring it out? IT’S CHRISTMAS.
CHRISTMAS.
CHRISTMAS.
CHRISTMAS.
CHRISTMAS.
CHRISTMAS.
You can’t get offended by “Happy Holidays” (btw, last time I checked, Christmas is a holiday, this expression is a way to wish people a Merry Christmas while simultaneously acknowledging that there are other holidays at this time of year as well, such as New Years’) and then refuse to say the word “Christmas.”

What a coincidence… I’ve been worried recently about Australia becoming a second US.
