Though Christmas commemorates a major event in the religion practiced by a majority of Americans, the godless left continues to target any semblance of Jesus displayed alongside other holiday decorations.
Relativists who feel all beliefs are equal view any reference to the true meaning of Christmas as exclusionary, while some have called Christmas carols a form of bullying.
A group of Christians in California, on the front lines of the War on Christmas, apparently had enough of their values undermined and traditions prohibited.
Appearing unexpectedly at an area shopping center, the “flash mob” set up a live nativity scene in response to the city’s decision to discontinue an annual display that had attracted visitors for 60 years.
With an inauspicious start, one caroler began singing traditional Christmas songs while standing near an empty manger.
Almost immediately, passersby stopped and began joining in the celebration.
As the live display continued, Mary, Joseph, Jesus, and the others associated with the first Christmas began appearing.
In all, the event lasted more than six minutes and culminated with applause from bystanders and impromptu participants.
Following the performance, those involved issued a statement explaining that the flash mob’s purpose was to share the love of Christ with the community.
“What matters is that the Christmas story needs to be told,” the press release stated. “At this time of year, Christians should be able to celebrate freely, carry on the message, and not be hiding for fear of offending someone.”
A message of love, acceptance, and the selfless sacrifice of a Savior was the only motive behind this event, which was carried out respectfully and to the apparent approval of those in the vicinity.
Because of an infinitesimally small group of rabble rousers, entire cities are caving into irrational demands to halt all mention of Jesus as believers across the nation, wary of retribution, shy away from fully expressing their faith.
The left has so misconstrued the First Amendment that much of America now feels that any mention of Jesus by any public entity anywhere automatically represents government endorsing Christianity as the one true religion.
While many Americans – including me – certainly subscribe to that worldview, there is nothing preventing those with other religious beliefs to practice as they see fit.
Applying oil to the proverbial squeaky wheel, though, authorities often cave to a vocal minority of moral relativists, safe in the assumption that the silent majority of Christians will live up to our reputation and remain silent.
A group of innovative and dedicated believers in California proved that this assumption is no longer reliable.

Good for you folks! Proving that 38 million Californians can’t all be wrong! Merry Christmas to you all!
I think it is sad the separation has become so prevalent that thousands of years of war and death are the accumulation from radical belief. It is illogical and irrational to believe that mythological creatures and entities created everything and are in control of our lives via good or bad. I mean really…the devil? It is not god that the atheist fears, it is the believers they fear. Believe what you want but believe this…people make choices for their actions…not invisible fairy tale creatures.
I hear ya here. How about these people that actually believe the Adam and Eve creation story as fact, hilarious. Then they’ll point the finger at other religions calling them “wrong” How can fairy tail stories be right or wrong when they are nothing more than people grasping for a meaning to their mental anguish. It is the human conditions. Every religion has a creation story and a bunch of other silly ideas that the followers will kill another person over even though it will violate the “rules” to their little belief system. So funny, humans are my favorite species, they are so ridiculous to watch.
Okay then, nunua. enlighten us as to how YOU think we were created. Primordial soup? Stroke of luck? Space aliens? I am sorry that you do not believe. But that is your choice. But with your words and calling believers ridiculous you have shown that YOU have no tolerance. You want to lump all believers together, then is it not fair that I lump you in with the lunatica and unknowing? And since again, by your words, you have shown that you do not know religion well, a little lesson. No fairy tale creatures make decisions for people, you’re right, God gave us free will, along with a moral compass. Mine has told me not to make fun of people, Maybe you could use one too.
Good for these Christians in California. We Christians need to sand up for our God-given rights or we’ll never get them back.
Great, good to hear people are allowed to practice the religion they choose, whatever it might be. Let’s quit using this as to bash other religions. Peace in the middle east!!
Again I repeat “Merry Christmas” to all of the atheist and other hate groups! May the one and only God come in to your heart and give you joy,peace and take away your fear and hatred of all that is good in this world.
My world is not a fairy tale by any means nor is my God!
Peace,Joy & Love to everyone this glorious sacred time we are celebrating!
May God also bless and protect the few of us that still believe in goodness and mercy!
I for one do not give a flying fig what these demon spawn think or believe,, I am a christian and have never been nor will ever be afraid to say it,, when confronted with a non believer I just tell them it’s their perogitive and I’ll pray for them,, that usually sends them running,, I believe everyone has the right to follow their own convictions and I would never berate them for that just as I feel I shouldn’t have to tolerate disrespect from them,, It’s called freedom of choice,, Merry Christmas to all and best wishes for a healthy, happy and prosperous New Year!!!!!!
