Actually he wasn't, moving from Judea into Egypt would have been more like moving from Indiana to Florida....Both countries were occupied land under Ceaser....just sayin.

I would like some feedback on this, hospital on Christmas eve, for years the Marines (Toys for Tots) and Santa show up to pass out toys to the sick kids. This year, because someone might be offended (the hospital did not say they had received any complaints) Santa and the Marines were denied entranced and escorted from the property by security. I think this is way overboard, what do you think?

I've been trying to research this and can't find even a rumor about this except for Anne's post.

One of my best friend's son is the commander at the American Legion that does the TFTs and she hasn't heard anything about this and has a message in to him asking about it.

I assume it's one of those religious PsOC that regularly circulate around FB and the internet this time of year though my friend and her friend have been scouring FB and haven't come across anything about it.

I call BS!   :rolleyes:

"You've probably noticed that opinion pollsters go out of their way to include as many morons as possible in surveys ... I think it's dangerous to inform morons about what their fellow morons are thinking. It only reinforces their opinions. And the one thing worse than a moron with an opinion is lots of them." -- Scott Adams

In other words: Never underestimate the power of stupid people in large groups.  ;)

It's called liberalism

And that's called stupidity.

It's just like you to take something like this at face value and turn it into your usual RW inanity.

The story being folklore and not reality, you're also completely wrong in your comparison, and your 'explanation' even points it out and you couldn't even grasp it.

I do not. My daughter worked at this hospital some time ago and some people she worked with told her about it. I will see if I can find out more about it and see if there was anything in the local paper.
