The Meaning
of the Nativity
The Christmas
service being the only guaranteed point of contact between the school and the
church proper, it is important that the modern Christian message is maximised:
guilt for our sins against the rest of the world and a plate collection
predicated on this.
Nothing
numinous spoils this prostration, God’s presence in the Christmas service is as
a sort of reparations tribunal judge. And so the pupils listen to a sermon as
if written by Madonna (not the Madre de
Dios, but the so-named billionaire idiot screecher and African baby
snatcher ), emphasizing how much ‘we’ still must do for Third World female
equality, thirsty jungle denizens, and aspiring, but non-swimming, future UK
welfare recipients. ‘Do’ here meaning pay up and suffer anguish.
As told by
the officiating minister, this is the current meaning (apparently) of Jesus’s
birth: Guilt for the White children*, here cast in the role of modern day
Romans; and righteous indignation for the darker-hued ethnic others, here cast
as the meek who are deserving of inheriting the Earth – or, at least, the
European portion. This guilt is, of course, presumed to be a well-deserved consequence
of colonialism, endemic racism and unearned privilege. And, so the argument
goes, this White privilege (as the practical expression of all the vileness
that swarms around the White genotype) must be destroyed if society is to make
progress. This progress is not defined, indeed it is important to the message that
it is left as a hazy destination on the horizon; however, although the child is
not able to comprehend the nature of progress’s destination, the adult reading
here is sure to understand some of its the less attractive aspects.
You may
wonder, as I do, how much of this sermon the children understand? Perhaps not a
lot, at least in the literal sense. But the intended message of guilt and retribution
is planted deep and then conflated with progress. The message planted deep is
the whole point of the sermon, and for this they do not need to correctly
understand it. It grows within them as they grow. And when we consider that we and
our children are surrounded by this self-same message coming at us from every
direction, the idea that our children are being prepared for another world to
come is not at all far-fetched. Is this targeting of our children in this
vulnerable, candle-lit setting an example of the predictive programming we hear
either proffered or derided?
Certainly,
as an adult and would-be protector of our children’s mental well-being, many thoughts join the hymns and homilies in speeding up to the rafters and beyond. But
these, alas!, are incongruous to the season of goodwill; and so, in the spirit
of which I’ll only list the simplest question about the spiritually free, but social justice dense, new meaning
of Christmas: Justify this truth!
Of course,
we need not accept the neuro-linguistic programming and shallow pieties of the
globalist Newspeak sock puppets that pass as current custodians of the empty churches.
We have our own saints to speak of spiritual truths, saints who have our
temporal as well as eternal well-being at heart. After the politicised nonsense
of the Christmas service, let us direct our children’s attention to them.
Indeed, we could turn to them for succour. And actually we should.
Omnes sancti orate pro nobis
What think ye?
* In a subtle little epiphany created for their
future (perhaps), the listening boys are cast in the role of Jesus before the
Sanhedrin, but without the opportunity to reply to the slanders to their sex.
PS. I wish my reader (thank you for your perseverance, …………. ) a merry Christmas and aa the best for the new year.
