Happy Birthday to a brown-skinned Jewish refugee and migrant, a major prophet in Islam, a socialist, a champion of equality, who was arrested and abused by authorities, who preached for love and against exorbitant wealth, hatred, hunger, and homelessness. Merry Christmas, friends! ❤️

Merry Christmas, Charlotte.

Merry Christmas, Charlotte! I hope your day is lovely. 🎄🎅🎁
@charlotteclymer Really is ironic that Greg Abbott spent the day that Jesus was born in a manager to two refugees by sending a dozen refugees to freeze in the cold.
@cupcakezealot @charlotteclymer I think it is on brand for Abbott. He relates more to the other guy
@mrpinkly @cupcakezealot @charlotteclymer Abbott is like the inn-owner who says “no room.”
@charlotteclymer He was also single and hung out with a dozen dudes so he was definitely pro LGBTQ.

@charlotteclymer Every time I think of Jesus that way, I can't help but notice that he was snuffed out by the religious conservatives of his day, who saw his 'woke' message, as detailed above, as a threat to their power.

Funny how that works. And rinses and repeats.

@charlotteclymer #MerryChristmas and #happyBirthday to #Jesus, who believed in loving all regardless of wealth, national origin, or religious background.

@charlotteclymer

Jesus was executed because he was a very woke dude.

Merry Christmas!

@charlotteclymer ...and who wasn't born in December because there was no December...
@charlotteclymer Merry Christmas! ✨️🎁🎄❤️
@charlotteclymer I like the description. I’m still unsure about the DOB.
@merleid if what I learned while mormon is accurate, Christmas is not the actual anniversary of Christ's birth. The current timing is motivated more by politics than accuracy. Pagans celebrated winter solstice celebrations long before Christmas was a common holiday, Christmas was a way to make it Christian. In the mormon church it's often phrased as a time to remember Christ's birth, rather than literally being his time of birth.
@desttinghim it’s been muddled up and argued on and on. Thank you for this share.
