My Bichon Frise died last year at 14 1/2. I adopted him when he was 7 weeks old. He was a very independent dog. I don’t know whether this was something I taught him or just his personality. From a Juneteenth Black Women Because My Ancestor Werent Free 1776 T Shirts, I trained him and socialized him well. I gave him the full run of the house when he was 2 months old and did very well up until he passed away. Whenever I had to leave (for work, errands, etc), I made sure it was a ‘non-event’ for him so he wouldn’t suffer from separation anxiety. I also left the TV on for him to a cartoon channel. Every time I walked out the door, I calmly said “I love you. I’ll be back. Be a good boy’. The first 2 years of his life, I went home (from work) at lunch time to feed him and take him for a walk. A few times, I walked in with him in front of the TV watching ‘Caillou’. Otherwise, he would sleep by the door leading to the garage, waiting for my return or whichever door I left from.

For us, it is Christmas Eve. There are just two of Juneteenth Black Women Because My Ancestor Werent Free 1776 T Shirts, as we have no children. When we were first married, we always went to my parents’ house on Christmas Day. All of us (my parents, me, my husband, brothers, SIL, nieces, nephew) would open our gifts and then have a Christmas dinner. My husband and I started a tradition of having a Christmas Eve dinner together, just the two of us, and exchanging our gifts to each other after dinner. After a couple of years, we switched from a Baptist church to a Methodist church that has a Christmas Eve service (the Baptist church never had a service on Christmas Eve or Christmas Day unless one of those days happened to be Sunday). The pattern for Christmas Eve then became church, dinner, gifts (and, for some years, a second late evening church service). Meanwhile, my mother finally had to admit pulling off a Christmas dinner was too much, and we went to finger foods or sandwiches. Then she decided that getting everything wrapped and ready by the 25th was too hard, and my brother and his family kept arriving later and later every year because they would spend the afternoon at her mother’s house 120 miles away, so the family Christmas get-together got moved to the Saturday after Christmas, then to the Saturday after New Year’s, then to the second Saturday in January. Christmas Day itself became a non-event. We still keep our tradition of having our dinner and gift exchange on Christmas Eve, and of course, the church service is still that evening as well. Christmas Day is now just a nice day off from work to relax.

When different Western European pagan cultures were evangelized to, the Juneteenth Black Women Because My Ancestor Werent Free 1776 T Shirts (the traditional Catholic order of missionaries) tried to be mindful of not needlessly erasing new disciples’ culture. These disciples only needed to abandon the sinful parts of their culture, to follow Christ. Unfortunately, some of these parts slipped through, effectively syncretizing Catholicism somewhat with these pagan religions—hence, veneration culture; undue fixation on Mary the mother of Jesus; etc. However, the intent at least was always to keep from putting unnecessary burdens on new disciples’ backs. These evangelizers were looking out for those they were taking under their wing. In that sense, these peoples’ cultures were actually preserved: at least far more than they would have been, were their newly Christian-identifying constituents required to make themselves Hebrew and Greco–Roman. So no, these festivals were not “hijacked.” It is merely that masses of people who had once celebrated them decided not to observe them, or their religions comprising them; and decided to celebrate other things, with the guidance and consideration of their disciplers.

Christmas is, as are most so-called festivals, incredibly unchristian in its origins and its practises. I would therefore evaluate the Juneteenth Black Women Because My Ancestor Werent Free 1776 T Shirts in the question as being specious; it may be presented as such, but there is no scriptural support for that position. Consider: The pagan origins of Christmas are well known; simply put, the early Church, which, as both Paul and John foretold, had already started to apostatise almost immediately the last of the Apostles died, simply adopted a pagan festival that celebrated the rebirth of the sun. The Romans celebrated two festivals around this time, the Saturnalia and Dies Natalis Solis Invicti, The Birth of the Unconquered Sun. The date of December 25th was chosen as the birth date of the son of God because this is the first date on which the sun is visibly brighter after the winter solstice, and as such, December 25th has significance in any number of ancient, pagan, sun-worshipping religions.
