taken at a fundy church.

Those poor Christians.....crying all the time because they "are not allowed to say Merry Christmas anymore". But I have yet to hear about anyone being stoned or beheaded for saying it. Persecution sucks.

2. War On Xmas - The Nuclear Option

Starting the War On Xmas early, since the strip mentioned it.

Yes, Virginia, as Mo says, "Xmas won."

Evidence submitted for your approval - "The Christmas Shoes," WITH scenes from the TV movie! A wonderful example of Xmas sediment...er, sentiment for the ears AND eyes!

This is the original version by Newsong in 2002. They were a "Xian Contemporary" band, of course.

For those who have lived until now happily ignorant of this masterpiece: a woman is dying and her kid wants to buy her a pair of red shoes "if Mama meets Jesus tonight."

Which makes absolutely no sense, but you can just STFU, you uppity, probably educated Scrooge! Xmas! Cute kid! Dying Mom! JEEE-SUS!1! What more could you possibly want?

You'll notice Mom is looking great in her hospital bed, so she's obviously suffering some fatal ailment which smites but does not wither. As usual for TV movies. And yes, that's Rob Lowe playing the arrogant, probably atheist lead who has forgotten The Real Meaning Of Xmas (tm).

The song was parodied as "The Christmas Thong," which is an evil attack on Xmas, Jesus, Moms, Dads and the entire God-fearing American entertainment/marketing industry. So whatever you do, don't search for that title or anything.
