My favorite part of the story of Christ’s nativity is the visit of the wise men. The gospel of St. Matthew gives us a hint of profound change that these men went through after meeting Christ- “they departed to their own country by another way” (Mt 2:12) These men after encountering Our Lord chose to “walk not in the council of the wicked”(Psalms 1:1). The enemy is afraid that we also can encounter Christ, and change our ways.

I wish to all my readers and friends a Blessed Christmas. Don’t be afraid to encounter Christ!

When I first came across the crucified pagan dwarf story, I was genuinely disgusted. However after thinking a while I have decided to point this story out for many reasons. While Christians may be upset at the signal the image to the right may be sending, it projects the truth about our society. It is acceptable to associate this pagan dwarf with Christmas, while mentioning Christ during this season makes you intolerant to other religious groups. Well here is an idea, why don’t we just rename this day into “Santmas”??? It is ironic that no one cares that the figure of this non-existent pagan dwarf is more accepted that Christ, the true reason behind Christmas.

I guess our society is much happier to live in the midsts of lies. We accept lie about this pagan dwarf over the truth of Christ. Is it also why we chose the lies about abortion over the truth?
