My Way News - Christian pilgrims mark Palm Sunday in Jerusalem

AP reports: "Hundreds of Christians holding green fronds marked Palm Sunday in Jerusalem, celebrating Jesus Christ's triumphant entry into the holy city two millennia ago. [...] Palm Sunday is the start of Christian Holy Week. It continues with Good Friday, marking Jesus' crucifixion and death, and Easter Sunday, celebrating his resurrection."

Comment: Read that again. Now reflect a moment. Isn't it wonderful that this is reported in a factual manner without any of the usual politically correct newspeak. After all, it could have referred to his "alleged resurrection" or it could have said, "his resurrection as recounted in the Biblical story," with an emphasis on story and the implied doubt that it really happened. So, thank you uncredited AP staff writer for your affirmation of the resurrection of our lord and savior Jesus Christ.
