If anyone else wants to celebrate another way, well this IS America, so go for it, BUT don't tell us how to celebrate our holidays here. I am sick of all this Happy Holidays BS so as to avoid "offending" (can you believe this?) anyone who might not be Christian. Give me a break!<br />I love the church painting, Barb and please forgive the rant.

I just went back and reviewed the flyer for the contest, I spoke too soon in calling it a Christmas card contest. The flyer says "Holiday card". Someone mentioned Christmas card to me and that stuck in my head. To me, it is Christmas. Christmas card, Christmas tree and I say "Merry Christmas". I don't really want to put his name out there, I was notified by a second party that they chose not to place my card because "of any religious connotations that might be brought up". Oh well, have to move on. I ordered my own Christmas cards with the image.Barbara Paskhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02236804963054766302noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9005104198381292497.post-38975210165038006172009-11-29T10:59:10.860-08:002009-11-29T10:59:10.860-08:00Hi Barb!

Maybe the representative should have taken a stand but you know politicians, they want to appeal to the masses.Barbara Paskhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02236804963054766302noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9005104198381292497.post-19876435061967957842009-11-29T07:25:39.998-08:002009-11-29T07:25:39.998-08:00I will not go quietly into the night...
They "...I will not go quietly into the night...<br />They "liked it" (the church painting) but felt it politcally incorect?!<br /> Well let me tell ya...<br />A church represents(to me)the LORDS<br />house!<br />Christmas is a celebration of our<br />dear Saviors birth.<br /> A Christmas card is sent to share<br />& enjoy this special time.<br /> A painting is done by an inspired<br />Artist. <br />The artist has feelings to this church.<br /> This is a Christmas card competition, and this is politically incorrect??!<br /> I protest!<br />What do they want,peter rabbit?<br /> How dare they. Really! <br />If you take Christ out of Christmas, you get santa.<br /> If you get santa, your into commercial stuff,at Christmas!?<br /> That's Totally incorrect!<br />(Sorry santa, you do have a place in our hearts.But your a cartoon!) I don't want hate mail, and no my name is not Ebineser.<br /> I'm not saying they chose a santa<br /><br />card.<br /> But to disqualify or not choose<br />an entry because of "PC" is obsurd.<br /> Where does it end? It doesn't!<br /> They'll take all the ground they can get.<br /> I'm not ashamed of the Gospel.<br /> Christmas is the beginning of our<br />chance for redemption.<br /> It leads to questions, and learning.<br /> People make choices. Lives get saved. Blessings abound. It's the will of God.<br /> Well Barb, I commented.<br /> I dont want to embarrass you, I'm<br />not a crazy person. <br /> But sometimes you have to speak up, stand your ground. Defend your rights.<br /> And another thing, if it was "PC"<br /> they should have called it a winter card, or a holiday card. <br /> Then we could have made 'em a snow man.
