I am going to be non-PC and wish every one of
you a very Merry Christmas. I know, I know, it is politically correct to say
Happy Holidays, but today is Christmas. It is also the birthday of a dear
friend of mine who happens to be Jewish. She and that Jewish kid from Bethlehem
share the same birthday.
Years ago, our family had wonderful next-door
neighbors. They were Jewish. He was an excellent doctor, one of the best in
town. One year, the year I remember because of what he said, a Christian
patient sent him a card with a nativity scene on it. Someone at the gathering
saw the card and was very surprised to see it there. “Not at all,” said our neighbor, “after all,
they were a good Jewish family.”
See that? There’s PC, politically correct,
and then there’s PC, properly Christian, Christ-like, and he, that good Jewish
man, had love for all.
I wish you all love and peace this day.
