Proof: Witness the campaign of hysterical attacks in the Amazon reviews of John Gibson's book, "The War on Christmas."
QED
Gibson brings to "The War on Christmas" the same good-natured sometimes humorous style he is famous for in his My Word commentaries on Fox News. I burst out laughing when I read the subtitle to Chapter 7, "The Home of the Serial Christmas Killer." It's a fun-to-read narrative mainly about seven case histories of Christmas hating foolishness.
It was interesting to me to find Professor Florence Wagman Roisman conducting a campaign against Christmas trees in Chapter 6. This is the same Professor Roisman who hounded Professor William Bradford out of Indiana University Purdue University Indianapolis Law School, because he, an American Indian (excuse me, Native American), refused to sign her petition supporting Ward Churchill. Don't all you Indians think alike?
Not all crusaders in the War Against Christmas are as malevolent as Professor Roisman; some are almost sympathetic. One can even empathize with the Serial Christmas Killer to a degree. He is an administrator just following School Board orders. (Where have we heard that before?) He is even honest enough to admit that he influences the Board and is in agreement with their policies. He has a defensible position -- full of holes and wrong, but defensible. He comes across as a competent, capable administrator who just left his common sense at West Point when he graduated.
As Gibson demonstrates, the War on Christmas is in reality a war against Christians. In fact, Gibson is being too narrow. The War on Christmas is just a brick in the wall of the War on Western Civilization -- a return to a drab, humorless Soviet style Dark Ages. A passage from Gibson's book is revealing in this regard. "I had a guy who called me and talked about the Christmas party, actually a holiday party now, and he said people would whisper Merry Christmas in each other's ears."
If you are remotely responsible for school age children or you are a combatant in the War on Christmas (either side actually), you should read Gibson's book. It is full of useful information about what you can and cannot do and where to get help if you need it. Read it now; December is too late.
