I don’t get too worked up about the Merry Christmas vs. Happy Holidays issue. I do get irritated if Best Buy makes reference to a Muslim holiday but deliberately ignores Christmas. If someone wants they can say “Happy HOLY Days.” Or if someone greets you with Happy Holidays you can reply, “Yes, thanks, I do enjoy the holy day celebrating Christ’s birth.” (I’m kidding — I don’t think being belligerent about it does much to advance the kingdom).
I have a Muslim employee. I wish him happy holidays, and he wrote “Merry Christmas” on a present he gave me. He knows who I worship. I’d rather save up all my goodwill with him for our next talk about Jesus.

Obama’s Safe Schools Czar Tied to Lewd Readings for 7th Graders — a thorough summary on a very perverse man who is the opposite of safe for kids. Go ask your friends if they’ve heard of Kevin Jennings. Then ask them to read this and more about him and to wonder why the MSNBC, CNN and their local paper are ignoring him and the perverse GLSEN organizations infiltrating our schools?
And of course the GLSEN group does little for safety and lots for indoctrination. Jennings wrote Queering Elementary Education: Advancing the Dialogue about Sexualities and Schooling, of which the title alone is enough to disqualify him from his current position. Consider this from one of their events:
Using images from popular children’s media, we will transform these into a subversive coloring book, writing stories for the characters we always wanted to rebel against. Because so much of children’s media does not include Transgender, Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual, Queer, and Feminist characters and ideas, we will deliberately work to contradict this. Don’t miss the chance to make friends, cut-n-paste with a real live glue stick, and change the direction of children’s media. No artistic experience necessary.

Pew survey shows that evangelical Christian Republicans are the most rational — well, duh. Seriously, Liberals and/or non-believers are twice as likely to believe in fortune tellers. And this polls show how those who attend church regularly are much less likely to believe in astrology and reincarnation than those who aren’t as committed.

Mentors and accountability partners are very important in the life of a Christian — Do you have someone helping and guiding you and holding you accountable? If not, get someone.

Teacher’s unions working to block accountability — Hey, maybe if they worked on being better teachers instead of fighting the obvious.
