Dec 2017

I just received a card from one of my RW cousins, whom I had to block on Facebook. His wife addressed it with "Merry Christ(oops)mas," just to make a case for how persecuted they are. He is one of my older cousins; we did not grow up together; I have NEVER received a Christmas card from him; and it was a tacky winter scene you might get from your dentist. The "oops" thing managed to sting me because I revere Christ as a prophet and it is like defacing the Lincoln Memorial. Going to get the most kickass Annunciation card, Italian-style with biblical verse and send to them.
I love Christian iconography and if they want CHRIST, I will definitely bring it.
