I'm talking about a muted and muffled secret chat I had today with the secretary of the school I volunteer at with grades two and four. What were we talking about? CHRISTMAS!! But we couldn't mention it out loud because it's verboten in the Rocky View School Board.
Verboten! It's all "Holidays" and "Seasons". Christmas has been trampled upon and kicked to the curb and I'm sick of it. If Satan is behind it all, he's winning because he's convinced everyone that Christmas is not inclusive enough for those who aren't Christian. And don't get me started on "Xmas", where the actual name of Christ has been removed.
Well then, what the hell are we celebrating?! December 25th is Christmas Day and I will shout it to the rafters every chance I get. What's going on now is akin to what happened to early Christians, who had to meet in secret and hide their worshipping back in the first years A.D.
People, get out there and witness for Christmas!

Reading with the grade twos, I had to laugh at how far we haven't come. Here's a picture from one of the books I was reading:
