When the last gift is unwrapped, and the food is all gone.
When the song of the angel is stilled,
When the star in the sky is gone,
When the Kings and Princes are home,
When the shepherds are back with their flocks
The real work of Christmas begins.

To find the lost
To heal the broken
To feed the hungry
To release the prisoners
To rebuild the nations
To bring peace among brothers
To make music in the heart.

Merry Christmas, DU.

Peace on Earth.

7. It used to be the Christians who would seek out the poor
But now they enact laws to keep them out of their neighborhoods. :puke:

12. Well, I'm a Christian and I haven't done that.
In fact, I don't know of anyone where I live who has.

Merry Christmas.

19. Look around downtown Atlanta
New laws enacted to de-people the streets, so that business can flourish.

3. My mother remarked every year at about 11 AM
that there was nothing quite as OVER as Christmas was.

She never got the point of the above.
