"I can tell you what Christmas is all about Charlie Brown"

Just some commentary....

I was trying to find Advent Calendars for my step-kids - the kind that have little chocolates in them....

You could order them on-line but I needed them a bit more immediately. So I went to Target. Lo and behold they had them...but they were not named 'Advent Calendars' they were called 'Countdown to Christmas'....

Um...yeah....

So my comment is this - if you are going to use the word 'CHRIST' in the title - why not go the extra mile and make it what it actually is - an advent calendar? We have to sanitize everything for your protection these days. It's OK to say Happy Hanukkah or Happy Kwanzaa - but Merry Christmas - no friggin' way - that simply not PC.

I am not the type to rave about Christian stuff - in fact usually I am on the other side of the fence - but I do believe in calling a spade a spade and I am kind of sick of the reverse discrimination of things....

So be brave marketing guys....grab that 'Christian' market and run with it....

Gospel of Luke . 2:8-14

"'⁸And there were in the same country shepherds abiding in the field, keeping watch over their flock by night. ⁹And, lo, the angel of the Lord came upon them, and the glory of the Lord shone round about them: and they were sore afraid. ¹⁰And the angel said unto them, Fear not: for, behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy, which shall be to all people. ¹¹For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Saviour, which is Christ the Lord. ¹²And this shall be a sign unto you; Ye shall find the babe wrapped in swaddling clothes, lying in a manger. ¹³And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host praising God, and saying, ¹⁴Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, good will toward men.'"
