Out with the old ...

“

A 2011-2012 school calendar published by the European Union has omitted Christian holidays, while continuing to note important Jewish and Muslim celebrations.

”

Reveille or Retreat? Looks the same.

What the hell are the dynamics at work here, I wondered? The calander was printed in France, which like most of Europe is famously anti-semitic, and like most of Europe France is in a battle royal with Islamos bent on hijacking their culture. I demand an explanation!

“

Former French politician and government minister, Christine Boutin, wrote in her blog Jan. 11 that the calendar leaves out Christianity, “the religion practiced or recognized as forming the cultural assembly of our ‘old’ continent ... She went on to lament that Christianity has “fallen into the limbo of collective ignorance.”

”

There you have it then. The components which are to form the cultural assembly of "new" Europe. Surrender is easy if practiced enough.

We gotta keep the Jews. Nobody wants to mess with them, anyway.
We should keep the Hindus. After all, they're Microsoft's tech support.
The Buddhists don't bother anybody. Leave them alone.
Gotta keep the Rastafarians (for obvious reasons).

So let's start with #2 and work our way down the list. Just keep wasting folks until all the terrorist shit stops.; 1/17/11, 6:22 PM

No traditional Christian, Jew, Hindu, or Sikh has ever threatened to cut my head off for failing to be pious enough by their standards. No Rastafarian or Presbyterian has flown airliners into buildings killing thousands. Hell, its even been DECADES since a Shintoist or Buddhist gave anyone in my family any trouble.

I'm a live-and-let-live kind of guy. My motto for trouble is similar to most Americans: "Don't START none, won't BE none."
