   20 years or more after at least some Christians began celebrating Christmas on 25 December. Some deny the possibility of Christ’s birth in December, arguing that lambs couldn’t have been safely left outdoors at that time. There is actually no mention of lambs in the Gospel account of the shepherds (Luke 2). It merely says, “And there were shepherds living out in the fields nearby, keeping watch over their flocks at night.” Adult sheep would be in a different situation. As overnight temperatures in Bethlehem can get as low as 7 or 8 deg C in late December, it would be definitely unpleasant in a field at that time of year, though not impossible. In fact, though, the 25 December date for the mass celebrating Christ’s birth was derived by calculations based on a strange theory that the dates of Jesus’ death and conception would have coincided, and, as others have pointed out, it is rather unlikely that Jesus was actually born on that day.

   about the days. Christmas is celebrated by the Orthodox Church on 7 January. It is a public holiday but it is not commercialized like in the west. In the Muslim calendar only Kurban Ait is celebrated. In the former Soviet Union countries New Year is celebrated with lights, trees, presents and big parties. Nauruz or the Asian New Year is celebrated in March. This is the start of spring and is a big celebration with lots of traditional foods, dances, sports etc. and a time when families get together. There are the usual political holidays, Independance Day, Constitution Day, Day if the First President etc. and some patriotic celebrations such as Defenders Fay and Victory Day commemorating the end of the Great Patriotic War (WWII).

   Durga Puja has always been a  Beach Bum Tropical Vacation Summer T shirts  of womanhood in Bengal; more so now, as the State has its first woman Chief Minister in Mamata Banerjee. Being a symbol of `woman power` herself, Ms Banerjee has received nearly 3,500 invitations to inaugurate Durga Puja marquees from across West Bengal. This shows that she is a true leader of the masses. All her supporters across Bengal want to share the festive spirit and celebrations with her. People want her to share their joy. She is a mass leader and yet she is like everybody`s neighbour. Demonstrating her will to protect her people yet again, the CM has decided that even though all government offices will be closed the government will stop functioning, she will have the same work load and may be more, during the festive days. The festive season will not be a time for respite for the other leaders or ministers of her government as well. Mamata Banerjee has already instructed them to r...

   a noun, meaning a paid-for day out, commonly in your employer’s time. But a jolly? Strange word. Back in the relatively innocent days of the mid-twentieth century, jolly was a round-cheeked, smiling, uncomplicated word. It went with fat, beaming, seaside-postcard ladies, having a cheerful time on the beach or at the funfair, or Enid Blyton schoolgirls having a midnight swim down at the beach, or a midnight feast up on the roof of the jolly old school. It was all very jolly, with never any repercussions, and it was all jolly good. Before that, the word seems to have come from two possible directions, and quite possibly both of them. It may be from the French joli, meaning merrry or joyful, or from the Norse word jól, from which we get Yule, as an old word for Christmas festivities. Put them together and the result is a jolly good word for everyone having a good time. It’s a pity it’s been corrupted into having overtones of something slightly dishonest!

   Christianity has the  TRAVIS D’ARNAUD WHO’S YOUR D’ADDY  that the Nativity story is fictitious rubbish and it does not take a modern child long to discard it in the same way as they pretty soon tumble to the fact Santa doesn’t exist. The Nativity story really is a myth tacked on to Jesus and it is a very destructive, landing us with obsessive superstitious semi-pagan bosh like the Maria Cult. Virgin indeed! Where a religion cannot come to terms with mythology, especially its own, then in the modern age it is in its death throes – Intelligent people leave and only the mentally disturbed remain. This is not the church of sixty five years ago where some belief in myth remained. A child perceives that he or she really does not want to be around these silly people – So what is left of Christmas? Sing silly songs and you get a present. Our children have been taught hypocrisy and that the church is really only a base for authoritarian parental control both emotional and ...

   There was definitely a way with my children’s father. We celebrated holidays and birthdays as we always had done, including inviting my ex mother-in-law. I think the  Arizona Cardinals Nike Women’s High Hip Fashion T Shirt  was that there were enough people invited that it wasn’t just him, me, and the kids staring at each other. We’re also a family not noted for our drama; my mom couldn’t tolerate drama! We still do holidays together sometimes, even though the kids’ grandparents are all gone now, one child lives 1200 miles away, and another child has married and is always included with his in-laws’ family. (My new spouse and I are always invited to the in-laws’ gatherings as well; it’s a huge and friendly crowd!) My kids are in their mid-30s now, and they’ve learned to make holidays a cooperative effort as well, despite having some of the most complicated family structures you can imagine. The point is to make it about happy memories for the kids and not a time/pl...

   After that, the no-deal crisis is scheduled for 31 December 2020. On this date England, Wales & Scotland look set to crash out of the  Ariana VPR I Hope Charlotte Haunts You Scandoval T Shirt  market and customs union. There will be separate trading arrangements for Northern Ireland. Mr Johnson could ask the EU for more time, taking talks into 2021. But there are reports that many EU member states aren’t expecting Mr Johnson to do this – though the European Commission is expecting a request. As the 31 December 2020 deadline approaches, no-deal panic could spread among voters and the UK’s elected politicians. Panic which could well spoil the Christmas festivities. Cabinet splits and anxious MPs meeting could follow, assuming Mr Johnson does not prorogue parliament first.
