Merry Christmas is not offensive!

Religious freedom is for everyone!
Well, December is nearly here, which means the dreaded "C word" is upon us. Put politely, "the holiday season" is nearly here. We shall all hear those "Happy Hanukkahs" and "Happy holidays," but rarely a "Merry Christmas." Secular fundamentalism has successfully injected into American culture the notion that the word "Christmas" is deeply offensive. I think we Jews may be making a grievous mistake in allowing them to banish Christmas without challenge.

We see obsequious regard for faiths like Judaism and even Islam, while Christianity is treated with contempt. I don't want Judaism treated with less respect. I want Christianity to be treated with as much respect.

Thank you, Rabbi! It is a pleasure to see a devout member of the Twelve Tribes stand up for Christmas, when most Christians are too weakened and emasculated by the culture to do it themselves. Blessings on your house, Rabbi Lapin.

"The LORD bless you and keep you; the LORD make his face shine upon you and be gracious to you; the LORD turn his face toward you and give you peace." (Num 6:24-26, NKJV)

P.S. I suspect that most objections to Christmas come not from Jews, or even from the Religion of Peace, but from the godless thought police who require, in order to sleep well at night, the avoidance of any exposure to the Name of Jesus Christ.

The intolerance reminds me of Corrie Ten Boom’s arrest by the Gestapo for hiding Jews. When she cried out to Jesus, the arresting officer ordered her not to use “that name” again, or he’d shoot her. He had the guns; she had the Name. She was understandably afraid of the guns; it is interesting that he was so shaken by the Name. If more SS officers had understood Hebrew, one wonders if they would have been able to stand it when their victims groaned out the Shema?
