15. Exactly, is it any of his business, and who asked him anyway?
I have a lot of African-American friends, none of whom observe Kwanzaa.
In fact when I asked one of them if they observed it (Catholic family, her husband is from Nigeria), she just gave me that black mother fisheye that they usually reserve for their kids and said"GET REAL".

So I don't know how popular it actually is nationally, but it must be popular enough since Hallmark has tapped in to it.

Anyway, I think Rev Dr Fraud up there is scared silly that the conservative black Christian segment is being "swayed" by the Kwanzaa
holiday and that threatens the Christian right somehow.

Although how anybody could feel the Christian Right is threatened in today's America is beyond me. Too powerful is more like it.

Another example of the pious arrogant so called christian (note the little c, how much more venomous I can get without bad language, I do not know) attitude of "my way or the highway (to hell)"

I lose all my religion when I get started on those turkeys. Guess I need to go talk to my own pastor to get my head back together. He and I will have a good laugh over this and I will feel better.

Pat Robertson is just MEAN
