Default The Religious Symbols Ethnic Debate

Megyn Kelly goes off about Santa being a white man unequivocally. Jon Stewart responds with hilarious results:



Good stuff starts at 2:45. Thoughts?

Girlfriend needs a visit from a Festivus.....pole.

And second girl needs to let first girl know her slogan that just because it makes you feel uncomfortable, it doesn't need to change, so she should relax about the Festivus pole.

Also, he's right - that's just too much crazy. I mean, really? These people are insane.

Actually pretty unfunny to me, not sure who the new girl on the show is but wasn't a fan. Funniest part was that they made black santa's milk chocolate without mentioning it lol

As for the "debate", Santa is a character with almost no relation to the real Saint Nick and really it shouldn't matter what race this character is.

...and it continues:

Quote:
Students at Cleveland High School in Rio Rancho, just north of Albuquerque, were told last week they could dress up as holiday characters. But when Christopher Rougier, an African American ninth grader, showed up dressed as Santa Claus, he was called out by the teacher.

"Christopher, don't you know Santa Claus is white? Why are you wearing that?" the student's father, Michael Rougier, told local television station KOB, relating what he described as the teacher's remarks.

Santa is whatever colour you want him to be.

Jesus on the other hand, because of where he was from, was most definitely, 100% not white. Sorry whiteys....

And we are the scatterlings of Africa
Both you and I
We are on the road to Phelamanga
Beneath a copper sky
And we are the scatterlings of Africa
On a journey to the stars
Far below, we leave forever
Dreams of what we were

More like Jesus was 100 percent not real, and Megyn Kelly and all others like her are 100 percent ######ed.

Well we know for sure that Santa isn't Chinese because if he was his sled would be going at 10 miles an hour with its left blinker stuck on.

And we know that Jesus is black because Madonna totally had sex with a black guy dressed as Jesus.

Megyn’s not black just because she spells her name creatively.

Even if you doubt the veracity of the divine nature of Jesus, surely you must be willing to admit that there is, at least, some chance that he was an actual person, who lived around that time and in the geographical area of the Middle East.
