My Take on "Happy Holidays"
All I can think when I hear of Christians boycotting stores that advertise "Holiday" sales instead of "Christmas" sales or instruct their employees to wish patrons "Happy Holidays" is this:What would Jesus do? I'm guessing he would look out over the earth and mourn.
So many poor, so many naked,
so many hungry, so many homeless,
so many dying, so many at war,
so many wounded and suffering
...and he would be angry at what is being done in his name and weep at what is not being done."I tell you this truth: When you help the least of these, my brothers and sisters, you have helped me." Matt. 25
