The War on Christmas (Not)

According to the Daily Hate and other newspapers, us PC killjoys are out to ban Christmas.

Unfortunately for them it isn't true and here's why.

James O'Malley has an interesting response, which is more anti-religion than I would write myself but still worth a read.

In summary, people are complaining that the Royal Mail issuing non-religious stamps this year is all part of a PC conspiracy. However the fact is they issue non-religious stamps every other year anyway, this year is no different. Anti-PC nutcases also cite Birmingham's Winterval as an attempt to ban Christmas, and yet Winterval only happened the once and featured Christmas celebrations prominately!

Thanks to Nick Barlow.

Unfortunately the Daily Mail is shit, but people think it is quality, for some reason.

Obviously it's "quality": It's just a question of what quality. Saying "quality" without specifing what quality is pointless. Likewise "specially selected" without specifying the selection criteria.
