Vatican newspaper cites "war on Christmas; says people today want Christmas to be no more that "a simple festivity of easy pleasure"...

"Many offenses are being committed in the House of God and the hearts of many: offenses to tear down the divinity and true existence of My Son in the Father." - Our Lady of the Roses, May 10, 1973

The Australian reported on December 18, 2006:

The traditional Christian values once cherished at Christmas have evaporated, with some countries, especially England, waging a veritable "war against Christmas", the Vatican paper Osservatore Romano said overnight.

The paper said the strongest sign of the changing face of Christmas is "the disappearance of all religious reference on stamps specially printed for Christmas, which now feature snowmen and deer and no longer the three wise men or the star" of Bethlehem.

In Europe, "and more particularly in England, there is a real 'war against Christmas', which has been denounced by the daily The Sun. A war that tends to erase all the traditions of Christmas," the paper added in an article signed by journalist Mario Gabriele Giordano.

Osservatore Romano said people today want Christmas to be no more that "a simple festivity of easy pleasure" instead of it being, as it should, a time of "meditation by authentic believers".

"The children of God will face enslavement by the enemies of God, known as your world Christianity, unless you pray and carry the banner of Faithful and True to God the Father." - Our Lady of the Roses, September 7, 1974

"My children, I repeat, 666, known forever in the Book of life, the Bible, as the man of perdition, is not one man, but the forces of evil gathered like vultures to destroy the Christian and Christianity, to enslave the good and make powerful the bad, to make sin a way of life until each and every living creature of knowledgeable age must make the decision: Who is your master, man or God?" - Our Lady of the Roses, April 9, 1977
