No Christmas Music For YOU!

New Jersey school bans religious Christmas music

The angels will not be allowed to hark their herald nor will the little Lord Jesus sleep on the hay after a New Jersey school district announced a ban on all religious Christmas music.

Constance Bauer, the superintendent of the Bordentown Regional School District, posted a message online stating someone had been questioning recent musical selections for the elementary school Christmas concerts.

Pardon me, the school district calls them “winter” concerts.

My guess is that a perpetually offended left-winger became unglued when they heard that little boys and girls might be pa rum pum pum pum.

“Religious music should not be part of the elementary program(s),” Supt. Scrooge wrote in her anti-Christmas screed.

I hate liberals. Liberalism is a disease that causes severe brain damage after it tries to suck knowledge and history out of yours.

As far as I'm concerned, their hyper-secularism is itself a type of religion. It has all the same bigots, zealots, and radicals as any religion has ever had. I'd like a bit of relief from their nonstop proselytizing.

Instead of banning the Christmas music.  Let's be fair.  Base the selections on the religious make-up of the students.  90% Christian then 90% Christmas music etc.

I hated playing Christmas music when I was in the orchestra(violin) when in school as most of us were Jews but I've had a complete reversal 15 or so years ago when I realized just how many of the greatest composers in history dedicated so much of their work to Jesus and Christian themes.
I thoroughly enjoy all the classics both Christian and Jewish and even Islamic(exploding bombs)LOL.

The secularists, atheists or whatever they want to be called need to be called out and slapped hard for their belief, yes belief is as much as a religion as Christianity or Judaism. ::rockets::

I have always wondered what these hyper liberals would do if:   since they were not Christians,  then Christmas would not be a holiday for them.   They would have to work that day,  not get a paid holiday or whatever.   

My guess they would not like that either.
