The real war on Christmas

It's actually being waged by Bill O'Reilly and other right-wingers. I should know: It almost ruined my family's holiday dinner.

    Reverse Generation Gap

    My husband and I, 60-something Unitarians, no longer visit our children on Christmas...and they certainly have no desire to visit us! Although we raised them according to our own very liberal politics and theology, all three boys are now rabid Republicans and evangelical Christians. When we do get together, we don't talk politics or religion, only grandchildren. Our unmarried daughter retains some semblance of our influence, but she doesn't have any children. I can only hope that when the grandkids grow up, there will be another generation gap!
