Nothing like being true Christians and sharing the holiday spirit by loving one another?
Boy, 9, banned from school Christmas party - ‘because he didn’t believe in Jesus’
Teachers banned a nine-year-old boy from his class Christmas party because his parents had barred him from RE lessons.
Douglas Stewart was forced to stay at home while his friends received presents from Santa and tucked into ice cream and jelly.
His parents were told he was not welcome at the celebration because they had pulled him out of religious eduction classes earlier in the year.
Headmaster Ian Davidson said that because the youngster had no interest in religion he could not celebrate the birth of Christ.
Furious mother Dawn Riddell, 38, said yesterday: “I’ve helped out at the Christmas party before and it’s got absolutely nothing to do with Jesus. Douglas was heartbroken he couldn’t go. It was cruel.”
christmas was not even originally called that, it was some pagan holiday that got hijacked.
In Denmark we call the holiday “Jul”, from the pagan solstice celebration “Yule”. And yet, christians here in Denmark also claim the holiday as their own. They got some nerve, stealing festivals from other cultures, and then excluding everyone who don’t believe in their scam.
