Ukrainians are apparently "knuckling under to extreme pressure from either their nazis or our own neocons"* because the Orthodox Church in Ukraine (OCU), which represents tens of millions of worshipers, announced that member churches would be free to celebrate Christmas on Dec. 25, the same as Western Catholics and Protestants. This is a split from the Russian Orthodox Church which says that Christmas falls on January 7th.

“Many Ukrainians are now moving toward celebrating Christmas on Dec. 25. And that’s only natural, because it’s part of our European choice,” Serhiy Prytula, a Ukrainian philanthropist and TV personality, told me. “We were always part of Europe before Soviet rule**, so it’s obvious and logical that people in Ukraine are ready and willing to celebrate Christmas together with the European family of nations to which we historically belong.”
*sarcasm **obvious neocon propaganda from American liberals and neocons

Christmas has many of us huddled together before fireplaces as the Bomb Cyclone's high winds howl around us and send the already below-zero plummeting to historical lows, even here in the Blue Ridge Mountains of Southwestern Virginia.
Merry Christmas to everyone on ReaderRant and best wishes for the holidays from Capitol Hill Blue and the volunteers who have kept this forum on the web for 28+ plus years and counting.
The moderators who keep things running here deserve far more than I can provide and I can never thank them enough for all they do.
Thanks too for the RR members.
Our best wishes for a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!
