The New Golden Calf

The Capitalists Have Their Eyes on Easter Sunday!

I just listened to a debate on the radio about keeping Easter Sunday special.

At the moment larger stores and garden centres can't open on Easter Sunday, for more details follow this link:

The chap on the radio agitating for Easter Sunday to be yet another 'normal' Sunday made a big play about consumer choice.

And that is the nub of the matter.

It seems the Capitalist Credo is "Choice."

We must have the choice to kill our children.
We must have the choice to go to whatever Church, Mosque, Temple etc.
We must have the choice to have sex with whoever we want (man, woman, vegetable and presumably in the future children).
We must have the choice to shop every day of the year.
We must have the choice as workers and shelf-stackers to work every day the shops tell us.

Seems we have every choice in the world... except to choose to live free of Capitalism, to live free of bank debt, to be free of crappy imports ruining our jobs and wages, to be free of taxation, to be free of coloured immigration and alien creeds, to not be involved in Zionist wars, to not be spied on by CCTV cameras, to not be swabbed by the police, to not have our DNA filed, to not have ID cards, to not be stabbed or shot on city streets by new arrivals to these shores...

Yes we have Choice! Choice to spend more, 24/7 on stuff we just don't need, to keep the fat multinational bosses supplied with Pina Coladas around their heated pools.

The Communists tried to wipe out Christianity in Russia and its satellites by getting rid of Sunday as a "Day of Rest."

They failed because the Russians, Poles etc. kept their national identities and kept, in their hearts, a special affection for their Orthodox and Catholic faiths.

The Capitalists are winning where the Reds failed.

You may not be especially Christian, but I really do think people should wake up and realise that Shopping Malls should not become the new Cathedrals of our civilisation, for if they do we will be genuflecting to the Almighty Dollar, to the Fat Cat Bosses and to Consumerism.

Capitalism has ripped apart the extended family, has mortgaged our people for life, has indebted our nation, communities and families for trillions of pounds...

Don't let Capitalism take Easter Sunday from us.

Christmas will be next...

Do you really want to go out for more McCrap Burgers and buy more Chinese crap? Is it so vital for one more day that our history and heritage is torn asunder?

Even if you're not a Christian, at least spend Easter Sunday with your family, as you would Christmas Day. Have a big meal, go for a walk in our beautiful countryside, visit an ancient ruin -- just stay away from the shops!

Shops are open Monday to Saturday. Some are open late and early. Some are open other Sundays of the year.

Is it REALLY so vital to the Capitalists that the big shops are open on Easter Sunday?

Do they hurt so much because their big shops are forced to close two days of the year?

Or is this yet another attempt, using the Golden Calf of "choice" (and the line that we are, after all "a multi-cult, multi-faith society"), to put another nail in the coffin of our Christian culture, heritage etc.

Don't be fooled. Don't let the Money-Men with their multi-cult rhetoric take another historical day away from us!

Consumers of the world unite - you have nothing to lose but cheap shoddy imports!
