Last night I learnt that #Calvinist #Scotland banned #Christmas in the #17thcentury.

Both my parents were #Irish #Presbyterians of Scottish descent. They celebrated #Xmas.

So tiday I asked my aged mother about anti-Xmas. Her family did Xmas, but the Presbyterian Church in #Sligo didn't. She says it was only in the 1940s that my grandfather persuaded the Sligo Presbyterians to hold a service on #ChristmasDay.

I escaped #Presbyterianism >40yrs ago. But I'm still learning how weird it is.

APROPOS OF EVERYTHING,
the "protestantism as vector of fascist #media networks" edition

today i columbused USA #presbyterianism has been taken over by their #eschatological sects; putting them at the forefront of “end of times” #propaganda.

there’s an actual 24/7 streaming #tv channel called END OF TIMES TV; produced by a presbyterian church in Florida.

1. are #IPTV channels that cheap to run?

2. why is it easy for fascists like Alex Jones, Joel Osteen, Charlie Kirk to have IPTV channels?
