Dateline Bethlehem

It's actually a few hours before Christmas in Bethlehem but I am outta here.
I debated posting this piece because it obviously has the potential to piss-off, well, everyone. Believers, non-believers, left, right, center, crypto, Mussolini-Style Corporatists, Rosa Luxemburg Spartacists, everyone.

First rule of blogging: Don't anger everyone.
(second rule: the end of the world will be good for page views)

But then I saw this story when going for the "Russia ruins Christmas" piece.
From Sputnik:
The hit Christmas carol “Hark! The Herald Angels Sing” has been altered to remove reference to Mary’s virginity.

So I thought, screw it [virginity ref?] here goes.

From The New Jerusalem Times:
