Palm Trees Defronded For Palm Sunday

 

God protect the palm trees

from those who rip off the fronds

in the mistaken belief that

Palm Sunday tree vivisection

is pleasing to Christ, nor

is the rape of the forests for

Christmas trees in December

nor the murder of pigs, duck,

and other innocents for Easter

and other holiday meals.

The Christmas Tree is a pagan

The Christmas Tree is a pagan symbol that Christians have spiritualized.  However, I think the Four Gospels indicate that the use of palm fronds in the Palm Sunday was permitted by Jesus.  To my recollection, only the priests and pharisees objected.  I would suggest the use of palm fronds in worship might even predate Christianity by being present in the 2nd Temple Judaism which was thriving before and during Christ's ministry.  Had this been a violation of God's precepts, I doubt that He would have kept silent, or that His Church would have encouraged the palms' use in Palm Sunday liturgies.

Tree Tales

I lived under a palm tree for several months. Once it stabbed me right in the eye, when I was arising from bedsheets on the morn. "Spikey plants shall no longer be!" shouted my buddy in blasphemy.
