The Twelve Days of Christmas
Maybe you are a bit like me when it comes to Christmas Carols. I know most of the words.I can hum along in tune if I forget. I find myself just praying for them to end. The specific origins of the carols are probably interesting but not something that I'd go out of my way to seek out.
That said - One of the remaining Holiday classics, one popular song has weathered the shit storm of the secular/non-secular debate. The Twelve Days of Christmas.
Well I'm here to spread ill-will and dissent even to that last remaining bastion of neutral holiday hymns.
1st... A Partidge in a Pear Tree... the One true God
2nd... Two Turtle Doves... the Old and New Testament
3rd... Three French Hens... Faith, Hope and Caring
4th... Four Calling Birds... the Four Gospels
5th... Five Golden Rings... the Books of Moses
6th... Six Geese a-Laying... the six days of Creation
7th... Seven Swans a-Swimming... the seven gifts of the Holy Spirit
8th... Eight Maids a-milking... the eight Beatitudes
9th... Nine Ladies Dancing... the nine friuts of the spirit
10th...Ten Lords a-Leaping... the Ten Commandments
11th...Eleven Pipers Piping... the Eleven Faithful Apostles
12th...Twelve Drummers Drumming... the Apostles Creed
Jest thought ya should know.

I'm giving this a +2 because I had never heard of Schott's Original Miscellany before reading this post and the reviews, and went out and purchased it because I thought it was an interesting title.
What a wonderful and charming little book it proved to be.

"This isn't just in medievil times either - it's still occuring today with the whole cloning issue, as though the pope is even moderately qualified to decide weather or not the planet is ready for cloning."
What, and you are? Shut the fuck up, you bleeding vagina.
--------------
Did I say I was? Did I even give a standpoint on the matter?
No.
I was merely pointing out that Christians have historically been responsible for scientific setbacks and so nulling point of the previous reviewer that went something along the lines of 'It's not like the worlds a worse because of Christians' - that this statement is false I feel is beyond contestation.
So, that was my point and it's relevance, what was yours?
Did you even have one, or were you just backing up your friend Michelle by flinging around poorly crafted insults?
Bleeding Vagina indeed... at least try and insert some flair into your put-downs.

Couldn't resist. Your replies just floor me.
"...The entire holiday of Christmas is based around the birth of Christ. So... doesn't it go without saying that songs composed about Christmas would be... uhm... you know, about religion?..."
The entire holiday season has only recently been all about the birth of Jesus. As religions go, Christianity is fairly young.
---------------------------------------------------------
... yes. No kidding. However, this is a really dumb comment because you're going off on a complete tangent. Notice how I said the holiday of CHRISTMAS? Meaning, the Christian holiday. You seemed to be enamoured to the fact that a Christmas carol was about *gasp* Christmas, and therefore, Christianity. I would have thought this would be an obvious fact. So, why are you pointlessly parroting something here that has nothing to do with your original post? Are you trying to confuse me? Or are you trying to make me think you're trying to confuse me? Because it's late and I think I'm confusing myself now.

I just don't understand how you can call a CHRISTMAS carol, any Christmas carol, a "neutral holiday hymn", and then proceed to pick it apart with vague and arbitrary references. The entire holiday of Christmas is based around the birth of Christ. So... doesn't it go without saying that songs composed about Christmas would be... uhm... you know, about religion?

Even if you were trying to open up a debate with this post, its still a shitty attempt. There are no question marks <sic> througout, nor do you ask the reader for their thoughts on the matter. Hence, the post reads like a statement, as though what you are saying is cast in stone.

Both very good points.
All right, All RIGHT!!!
Admittedly, this was a poor attempt if I was starting a serious debate. I didn't offer talking points, set the tone or even state my position. Thing is, I had no point. I really could care less. I thought this was interesting. That is all.
Most holiday songs referencing religion have been outlawed by now. It occurred to me that "The Twelve Days of Christmas" still plays on. Maybe because no one can remember the verses, could be that the words don't mean much today. (what with the many flocks of birds given as gifts before even one piece of jewelry...)
On the other hand, (IMHO), It really wasn't that bad as a conversation starter. It pissed some folks off, it made others argue amongst themselves. At times it strayed completely off-topic. My favorite!
Look, who gives a shit? I enjoyed hearing what people had to say. Made Most Heated for the first time in like 2 years! Whoooo Hoooooooo!

The Spanish Inquisition (wiping out the entire Inca civalisation 'In The Name of God')
The Holy Crusades (attempting to do the same in turkey)
Northern Ireland (loosely related)
Regular molestation of innocent alter boys
Witch Hunts

The origins of this song go back to the times when Christians were prosecuted by the Romans for practicing Christianity. It kinda goes hand in hand with the simple fish you see on the back of a car passing by. The Christians made things up that wasn't noticible by the Romans.
As for that fish, when a Christian wanted to know if someone they were talking to was a Christian, they would draw that in the sand and if the person they were talking to recognized it, they would hug quickly, rid the sign from the sand and be on their way.
This song is similar. Just a way of worshipping without getting in trouble.

Yeah, XBF.... you go right on thinking that. I never once said that it wasn't used for christian purposes, now did I? Nooooo.... I said that it had pagan roots first. I'm not arguing the fact that it was used for that purpose. I'm saying that it was a pagan song first. The words, the tune, the whole shebang -- pagan. I said that the christians jacked it for their personal use. I'm not arguing for or against a religion, I'm simply outlining something that is already quite well known to EVERYBODY except for most christians: y'all are some unoriginal, mythology-stealing, tradition-raping bastards.

CookieLass - it's likely the tune and even the lyrics meant a great deal to many generations before the middle-ages. Co-opted in the name of the papacy it probably became another useful "recognized" carol adopted by the Christains. If ya can't beat 'em (forever), join 'em.
I copied it out of one of my most treasured books: "Schott's Original Miscellany". Schott's defines itself as a snapper-up of unconsidered trifles. It makes no claimes to be exhaustive, authoritative or even practical. It does, however, claim to be essential.
The tiny little book is a great collection. Found in it's pages are the labors of Hercules, the methods of murder solved by Miss.Marple, The Hampton Court Maze, and Line of the London Underground. I can look up cricketing dismissals, a schematic of Dante's Inferno, the official suppliers to Queen Elizabeth, how to wrap a sari and last but not least, Bond films by year, villian, key car and, of course, Bond girl.
Handy 'lil book to have around.

That pretty much rules everything known to man.
And any man against this is a fag. Drugs and Sex--no strings attached sex with hookers, that's part of being a man.

um. I think your right to practice a religion of your choosing is important.
Like uh, freedom from persecution--that's a good rule. It's good to have the melting pot.

There's all sorts of numbers in the bible. That doesn't mean that this song is about that.
For all we know, the song could be about the NBA. Or the history of wheat.

What the hell? Are you just making this up off the top of your head? What about jingle bells? White Christmas? There are tons of non-religious Christmas songs.

not really, but good propaganda. It actualy symbolizes the festivities and feasting of the 12 days of the winter solstice. But since the christians swiped everything else about the holiday, I suppose they can have this crappy carol too.
