Family Christmas Ruined As Dads Demands Free-Will Acceptance of Gifts

Local Man Holds Family Hostage with Present Guessing Game, Turning Holiday Cheer into a Test of Free Will and Acceptance



In the charming town of Snowyville, Harold Thompson, a devout Freewill Baptist and self-proclaimed "Gift Philosopher," decided to take Christmas to a whole new level. This year, he declared that his family would not receive their presents until they could articulate what each gift was and consciously choose to accept it.


The Gift Revelation Ceremony

On Christmas morning, instead of the usual chaos, the Thompson living room was filled with confusion. The children stared at a pile of gifts labeled with cryptic clues. 

"Before you can open your presents," Harold announced, "you must demonstrate your understanding of what lies within."

Emily squinted at a box marked "For the one who desires knowledge." After some guesswork, she identified it as a reading lamp.

"Do you freely choose to accept this gift?" Harold asked.

"Yes, Dad," she sighed. "I freely choose to accept the lamp."


The Great Guessing Game

As the day dragged on, the family played a tedious guessing game. Young Timmy finally guessed his model airplane kit after several wrong tries. Linda correctly identified her cozy blanket, earning an approving nod from Harold.

By noon, all gifts had been identified and accepted. The Thompsons sat amidst their chosen treasures, feeling both victorious and slightly exhausted.


A New Tradition?

Reflecting on his experiment, Harold felt proud. "We truly appreciated our gifts because we chose them freely."

Linda chuckled. "Next year, let’s skip the philosophy lesson."

And so, the Thompsons learned that while free will is important, sometimes it’s best to simply enjoy the moment without overthinking it—especially during Christmas!

Piper Defends Male Strippers from Driscoll, Says Faith is "Erotic to the Core" MINNEAPOLIS, MN - In a surprising turn of events, prominent evangelical leader John Piper has come out in defense of male strippers, arguing that their profession is a valid expression of Christian spirituality. The controversy began when fellow pastor Mark Driscoll condemned male strippers as "ungodly" and "a threat to the moral fabric of society." Driscoll's comments sparked outrage among some in the Christian community, including Piper, who quickly rushed to the defense of the much-maligned exotic dancers. "Mark Driscoll clearly has a very narrow and repressed view of human sexuality," Piper told reporters. "As I've said many times, the Christian faith is erotic to the core. 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...
