From here:
This Sunday, Nov. 28, is the time to act. Everyone is encouraged to sing “Silent Night” and to send in videos to General Synod as part of the Silent Night Project.
Regrettably, Bishop Michael Ingham and half the other bishops in the ACoC succumbed to choking fits when they sang the line “Round yon Virgin Mother and Child’. Luckily, there were no fatalities since the bishops, having recited the Creeds every Sunday, are well-practised in spouting what they have long ceased to believe.
Christmas Carols before Christmas Eve? Come now – whatever happened to Advent?
Our society is in so much of a rush that it is putting the cart in front of the horse. Several radio stations started playing “Christmas” music before Advent I. And how many towns and cities have already had their Santa Claus parades? But when we wake up on December 26th it will all be gone. Sad, isn’t it?
