I really guess I should not be surprised: PBS hates Christmas.

Why… (you might ask) am I writing about the war on Christmas so out of season?

The nature of my job allows me to telecommute from home a few days out of the week. Ordinarily, I’m in the “Den” but this morning found me in the living room, where Mrs. Seeker had turned the TV on to distract the wee one from pulling on power cords or lobbing LEGO bricks across the room … so one of the kid shows I’ve half-watched comes up, playing Christmas carols (to a themed in-show holiday called “the Starlight Festival”) with the words accordingly changed up.

Again I say not very surprising considering the source, but a bit saddening to see tis sort of indoctrination and/or political correctness starting so young (the show in question is probably geared to kindergarteners and maybe up to 2nd-graders.

Political correctness apparently has no lower limit.

That’s right, no “happy holidays” or “season’s greetings”, or other, similarly generic, non-specific politically correct reference to the week of 24 Dec. to 1 Jan. blurbage here.

It is all about remembering the Saviour who came into this world a little over 2,000 years ago to redeem us from sin and lawlessness back to the mercy, grace, and love of God, and a relationship with Him through that same Saviour, our great God and Lord Jesus Christ.

Merry Christmas to you and yours.
