Christmas / Jesus fact or Fiction?
Jesus - fact or fiction?
Xmas - for the rest of us!
Christmas time again. It means something different to everyone, with so many traditions, celebrations and goals for many. There will also be a handful of religious folks talking about ‘the birth of Jesus’.
Some take it for granted, some ignore it, some refute it and others celebrate it in a variety of ways. The story itself is quite in depth, but no good knowing the story if we don’t know if it’s a reliable story.
Is it a myth, fairytale, allegory, religious belief etc - is there any basis for truth in the narrative? We don’t want to be gullible and repeat the fallacy of so many
Jack Lives Here?
JACK LIVES HERE: I had this sticker on my car, and in the bar. I loved Jack Daniels (like loved Jacks!) - but I didn’t know something that was of vital importance…

I saw today a post where someone had put the words:
“as a Christian I would never enforce my view on anyone”
I could hardly believe my eyes - is this why so many professing Christians are unwilling to stand up and say no to abortion or the re-definition of marriage?
If I were walking down the park and saw a group of boys throwing stones at a Magpie, using a stick to stab a cute kitten, throwing acid at a dog or using a crossbow to shoot a Kangaroo - should I walk or look away?
What if a group of men come to try to rape my wife - should I not enforce my will, my opinion, my belief that ‘rape is wrong’, that ‘my wife should be defended’? Should I sit back passively and model a more loving, nicer way to live - a more tolerant ‘religion’ and share my love with these men when they are finished?
How absurd! Unfortunately, many liberal churches and christians are falling into this culture trap - and many have already a suffered because of the consequences. We have videos, games and media that display what was (and should be) classed as pornographic and unthinkable, but now normal on bus stops, in games and on prime time TV. Computer games where theft and killing are the main aim and constant programs that mock Christians / Christian values, but play political correctness to all others....
