Background:

• While our society has become more materialistic, our politicians have also shown increasing opposition to the traditional religious values by being “politically correct”.
• If we don’t start to protect our Christian culture, no one will protect our core values. And before long, all our Christian values may no longer exist.
• “Marriage is a union between a man and a woman” is one of the examples of the traditional values being challenged today in Canada. And recently, increasing number of organizations and companies choose to use “Holiday Season” instead of “Christmas”.
• I doubt people would rather use “Holiday in May” stead of “Victoria Day” or “General Holiday” instead of “Canada Day”.
• We respect other people’s choice but we can’t be ignorant of the reason why those special days are remembered and celebrated in their special ways.
• So, I hope other people will respect the rationale in our special traditional celebration.
• Put Christ back in Christmas! Take appropriate action to rectify this semantic change.

Actions:

1. Understand and embrace the central spiritual truth and celebrate the real spirit of Christmas!
2. Cut down unnecessary shopping to counter the secular views. If you have to shop, do it according to your “NEED”; don’t do it according to your “want”.
3. When you need to buy gifts, BOYCOTT those stores which have “Happy Holiday Season” in store display or in their advertisement.
4. When you send Christmas cards, choose those with a religious theme.
5. Continue to say or write “Merry Christmas” to people as in the past.
6. Reduce excessive spending on shopping or parties. Donate the money to organizations with true Christian values or for the needed people.
7. If you agree with this idea, please share this suggestion with your friends.
