When I think of Christmas, this image of a product John Aravosis found being sold by the Christian right American Family Association is not the one that comes to mind. You'll remember the AFA from such moments of intolerance as attacking Keith Ellison for being a Muslim and seeing a "secret gay agenda" in, well, everything. Throw in a little anti-Semitism there too while you're at it. In any case, this is the look they're going for this holiday season:
Product description:
Looking for an effective way to express your Christian faith this Christmas season to honor our Lord Jesus? Now you can.... with the "Original Christmas Cross" yard decoration.
Yeah I guess nothing's more "original" than that.
Look, my advice is not to put a burning cross on your porch as a Christmas decoration. But hey, I'm Jewish, so what do I know from Christmas?
