Christmas and Aliens
I wrote it | Good Ole Paul

An intergalactic anthropologist visiting one nation on this off-the-beaten-path planet might draw some amazing conclusions. He (or it, or whatever) might conclude that many of the natives are members of a "White Deer Clan," as numerous illuminated electric likenesses of white deer have been erected in yards and on municipal properties. He might alternatively conclude that the indigenous population consists of devotees to some weird "Cargo Cult," where a gaudily-dressed demigod descends from above and distributes gifts to True Believers. He might conclude that this country worships the changing of the seasons, as everyone says "Seasons Greetings" to each other and symbolic snowflakes are hung on lampposts.

This off-world anthropologist would certainly see that the natives have an inborn drive to worship SOMETHING, but he would conclude that they are still primitive, ignorant savages who worship meaningless icons; barbarians who haven't yet progressed to the celebration of that great universal principle, "Love Your Neighbor;" pagans who ignore the Great Teacher who once walked amongst them. As he puts this poor little world in his rear view mirror, he might say a prayer for the soul of a nation that is so obviously hungering for Truth, yet still insists on worshiping tripe.

You signed on to FreeRepublic to post that? Did you really think it was that good?

You really shouldn't post personal information about yourself on the Internet. There are many sexual predators out there.

I'm not sure if this is a troll, or what.

Nothing more painful than bad writing. Ok, maybe bad writing and no wit.

Paul Broshear was a Libertarian candidate against Ray Sansom for the Florida House.

Hey! Over here!

They let the patients out early for Christmas (or as it's known by some, Chistmass), and some of them have found their way onto the Internet.

Careful. The real Paul Broshear may be someone the poster doesn't like.

Are you suggesting Good Ole Paul is Ray Sansom?
