As a father of mixed-faith children, Jon Stewart has come to realize that the Christian holidays are winning over kids way more than the Jewish ones. Hanukkah may not be able to compete with the spectacle of Christmas, but Jon pleads a case for Passover over Easter in this Faith/Off. #DailyShow #JonStewart #Passover
So so so true
ReplyHow can religion be about the things that it is supposed to be about, when people can’t get over themselves long enough to pay attention?
Be happy that you survived the winter and deadly things that come with it. That’s all, that’s the whole thing. Just be happy you survived… happy spring!!!

Those who have suffered and started the revolution cannot go beyond the limits their past sets for them. Only those who have not been born in slavery may succeed in achieving the promised land.”

ReplyNGL i’ll take the veggie plate. i’m old.
Replywork it out Jon, work it out
ReplyI will also add that to be fair to peasant Eastern Europeans back in ancient times, the cedar plate would be considered a feast by comparison of what they usually ate. 😅
Reply“Christians have figured out if you get the children, you win.” …. Did…did you want to stick with that wording?
ReplyI don’t hate religion.. it’s their followers who are the problem
ReplyAlso, the guy Christians celebrate at Christmas is a Jew – indeed, perhaps the most famous Jew, yea, even He who is the reason for the Christmas season.
ReplyIn fairness, all the fun Easter stuff is a holdover from Oester, A pre-christian Northern European spring fertility festival. No slavery or crucifixion, all eggs and abundance. So the Christians kind of …cheated.
ReplyAs a Christian, I celebrate the Passover. I distance myself from Easter.
ReplyThe amount of madness with all the religious freaks in North America is off the charts. No one in the world points that out better than Jon Stewart. I suppose buying kids easter eggs and feeding kids goat bones is better than buying hand guns for the holidays. By the way, why are hand guns easier to buy than Kinder eggs in America?
