We are talking about the birth of a child, Not the revolutionary act of a strong man, Not the breathtaking discovery of a sage, Not the pious act of a saint. It really passes all understanding. The birth of a child is to bring the great turning around of all things, is to bring salvation and redemption of the whole human race. What kings and statesmen, philosophers and artists, founders of religions and moral teachers vainly strive for, now comes about through a newborn child. -

CHRISTMAS TREES CHOPPED CHRISTMAS decorations have been banned from three out of four workplaces - because they might offend other faiths. Law firm Peninsula said a "wave" of political correctness was affecting festive traditions. A survey of 2300 employers found that 74 per cent had banned decorations because of other faiths, while half thought they made offices look unprofessional. Peter Done, managing director of Peninsula, said: "Although employers who are enforcing the ban are sceptical and dismayed by this trend, they feel that they have little choice in the matter due to the threat of litigation. "They have to protect themselves, their reputation and their livelihood." Meanwhile, another report shows many workers have to spend their own money at office Christmas parties. A survey of 1200 adults by supermarket chain Somerfield showed only a third got a completely free night at the annual office bash.Bah Humbug!
