American Politics enters even Christmas display -

[Maria]

Good ! Joasia and Icxypion UNDERSTOOD how BEYOND OUTRAGEOUS this was !!
THAT kind of reaction is what I expected !!!

I am still reeling over that.

Seeing the picture of the smug obama makes a difference, too.

And to think I was only searching for the Christmas stamps put out by the Post Office this year - not
that I approve of them, for the Flight into Egypt one was pioneered by the Washington National Cathedral -
which "welcomes people of ALL faiths" according to its tacky webpage - and features a woman wearing some
kind of fake 'vestments' - of course what can one expect, as it is Episcopalian ??

By the way the new OCA metropolitan's MOTHER is one of these Episcopalian "clergy" -- which most people have
heard by now.

Back to this, the figure of obama at the Nativity defies any description.

A commenter said he must be a King indeed, Herod ! I am sure this person referred to the killing of all the unborn children
through obama's forcing of abortion on this country.

I was not pleased about that new king in the nativity display. Guess that is politically correct! Ugh.

Wow! New Calendarist Metropolitan Tikhon of the OCA has a mother who is a priest or bishop in the Episcopal Church? Do you have a link? I had not heard about this, but it is not surprising. What a nightmare this could create! What if she shows up at some OCA event wearing her priest-collar?

OCA is probably quite used to interfaith presence at their big events. I think they are long past being awakened enough to feel an ounce of real scandal. I mean they allow their own bishop, Abp Puhalo, to repeatedly continue his video blogging on YOUTUBe in his campaign to defend transsexuality! NObody has expelled or censured or defrocked him. They just stay quiet and let him run around peddling his filth. So I doubt a woman wearing a dogcallar is going to upset anyone.
