Peanuts by Charles Schulz for December 22, 2024

If you see Abe Lincoln, you’ve made a wrong turn and the wrong millennium.

And I thought I was confused…

Sally is always right, even when she doesn’t have a clue what she’s talking about.

Abe Lincoln must have been born in a manger then!

My share of the loot every year at this time is listening to “Snoopy’s Christmas” (Royal Guardsmen).

Merry Christmas, My Friends!

LOVE Sally. Merry Christmas.

The joke about Sally, aside, I doubt there actually were any log cabins. The whole concept of a log cabin involves a situation in which trees are plentiful and skilled woodworking skills are scarce. In 1800 Kentucky, Lincoln’s father could chop down whatever trees he wanted, and it didn’t require great carpenter’s skills to make walls of the logs. But in a long worked, arid area like Palestine, trees were scarce. And in the wealthier regions of the Roman Empire in the reign of Augustus, carpenters were available. Jesus’s father was one.

Sally’s confusing the patriarch Abraham with Abraham Lincoln. That’s understandable. I remember, when I was a little kid, when I first heard the term “Israelites”, I was thinking that it was something like Christmas lights.

It doesn’t matter; they made up the story as it went along.

Merry Christmas! Happy Hannukah!! And Happy Holidays to all!!

Wasn’t Abraham Lincoln born in a log cabin?

Share of the loot. Oh Hell yes! That is what xmas is really all about !!

Linus gave a special speech about the story of Christmas and it appears nobody learned anything.

Both had humble births.

The Garden of Gethsemane is a different story too, Linus.

Abe Lincoln followed the star seen in the east…

Sally knows the real meaning of Christmas for most people

Maybe Sally wants a set of Lincoln logs for Christmas?

When I saw the river Jordan, it seemed more like a creek. A local man told us, “yes, Americans always expect it to be like the Mississippi”.

That was quite a few years ago.

Conflating Jesus with Abraham Lincoln, is she?

If there was ever an example of an All American Christmas Story, Sally has definitely provided it.

Only Sally could get Abraham Lincoln mixed up in the Nativity story. Merry Christmas.

Isn’t that where Elon Musk was born?

Abe Lincoln was born in a log cabin that he built with his own hands.

A Sunday school teacher tells the students to draw a picture of the Nativity. One little boy draws the stable and the Holy Family, the animals, etc. but adds a little circular fellow in the corner. Teacher is puzzled and asks, “OK, I see Mary, and Joseph, and Baby Jesus, but who is this little guy?” Kid answers, “That’s Round John Virgin!”

These seven U.S. presidents were born in log cabins:

Andrew Jackson, James K. Polk, Zachary Taylor, Millard Fillmore, Franklin Pierce, James Buchanan, Abraham Lincoln, Ulysses S. Grant, James Garfield.

Well, there was an Abraham born in a log cabin and another one in the bible.

Merry Solstice, it’s the reason for the season! All of them actually.

“Hey Sally, why don’t you run along and see what your boyfriend Harold Angel is up to?”

Bethlehem is spending christmas in the dark this year because lights attract the occupying forces, and they don’t want to be bombed to death by US foreign policy

Log cabins seem drafty, mangers were probably warmer with all the hay

LOL :)
