Slightly Less Than Orthodox
Via Kevin Drum comes a link to Cathy Young, who has transcribed an exchange on Bill O’Reilly’s show which, how can I say this nicely, captures exactly nothing of what Christmas is really about:
Rev. Tim Bumgardner: I think they should put a Nativity scene — be American! Hey, celebrate Christmas — people spend more money! Jesus makes people want to spend money!
O’Reilly: I agree. I’m with you.
Heaven help us if Christ’s incarnation was merely meant to make us spend more money once a year.
