As you know last night was the annual airing of the 1964 claymation treatment of the gospel's Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer story.

You may receive the normal e-mails protesting the liberal interpretation by directors Kizo Nagashima and Larry Roemer (produced by Jules Bass and Arthur Rankin Jr.) Just a heads up.

The depiction of the Abominable Snowman as "against Christmas" is an attack on patriarchal Christian societal teachings. Likewise his carnivorous tendencies serve to paint a negative light on meat eating particularly baby reindeer eating. Notice that he prefers "pork"-see producer credits

According to the scriptures Hermey was not THAT gay.

Okay Yukon Cornelius was but he was Canadian probably French Canadian.

The scriptures in no way promoted the pre-marital flirting (which leads to you know what) between Clarice and Rudolph.

The idea that a secular figure such as Santa Claus could "cancel Christmas" is a direct affront to God on his son's birthday. It is important to note that this whole "non conformity" interpretation was initiated the same year that the Beatles first appeared on TV in the United States...a coincidence?

The following appears in no way or no where in the Bible:
Yukon Cornelius: Whoa. Whoa. Unmush, will ya?

It is commonly accepted knowledge that the "great snowstorm" was a warning from God to all of the sinful behaviour displayed in this story and to imply that a genetic freak could over ride God's will is blasphemous.

3. Anyone ever notice what a prick Santa is in that show?
No reindeer games for Rudolph, and no chance of pulling Santa's sleigh just because of his nose?! :wtf:

Santa should be taking Rudolph's side in this and encouraging the others to accept him.
What a miserable person he is to just write off Rudolph.

5. And what about forcing thousands into permanent exile on a barren, frozen island
in the middle of nowhere? Forcing poor lonely "misfit" toys into a dreary pointless existence for no better reason than they being manufactured, through no fault of there own, with minor defects. Defects caused directly through the mismanagement of his own incompetent or poorly trained elvish work force or "helpers".

Santa is a vicious BASTARD and as far as I'm concerned he makes Hitler look like Wayne Brady by comparison.
