X Is For Christ

This is truly mind-boggling. Chicago is holding a German Christmas festival, a festival in honor of a Christian holiday, but don't want to offend non-Christians by allowing the new film The Nativity Story to be a sponsor.

One gentleman said that would be a lot like celebrating Abe Lincoln's birthday without talking about Abe Lincoln.

The mayor's office claims they don't want to endorse one religion over another.

It's a Christian holiday! You're already endorsing a religion!

Mood: Baffled
Music: Bad Company: "Youngblood"

i actually heard that they want to keep it non-commercial. the makers of the nativity story were just going to show a clip and then pass out info on when and where they can buy tickets to see the whole thing.
