Council Called to Decide When Christmas Decor Is Acceptable 0

Christmas Showdown: Deck the Halls or Stuff the Turkey?


 

In a groundbreaking move, the newly convened Ecumenical Council of Christmas Decorators (ECCD) has met to settle the burning question: should we deck the halls with boughs of holly the day after Halloween or wait until the day after Thanksgiving? As the Apostle Paul said in 1 Corinthians 6:12, "All things are lawful, but not all things are beneficial."


Pro-Pre-Halloween Faction argues that early decorators are simply "preparing their hearts" for the season. They cite studies showing that 87% of Christmas cheer comes from excessive twinkling lights and eggnog consumption. 


Pro-Post-Thanksgiving Contingent insists that waiting honors the sacred turkey and respects Advent’s solemnity. They argue, “Why rush? The Christmas spirit is like a fine wine; it needs time to breathe.”


As debates rage on, one thing is clear: whether you’re a jingle bell early bird or a festive procrastinator, the true spirit of Christmas is alive and well—somewhere between the candy corn and pumpkin spice lattes.

God created us as sexual beings, and that includes the male stripper." Piper went on to cite the "Song of Songs" as biblical evidence that God delights in human sensu
