Christ ... the Lord

Or not.

One great thing about the niqab ... I hear it makes a great Christmas tree skirt when you take it off.

A veiled Muslim woman will deliver this year's alternative Christmas speech on Channel 4, the broadcaster has said.
Khadija, a Zimbabwean-born British citizen who has been wearing the full veil - or niqab - for 10 years, has been given the slot.

The message will reflect a year in which the wearing of religious clothing and symbols have "dominated the news agenda", said a Channel 4 spokesman.

A counterpoint to the Queen's Christmas speech first appeared on C4 in 1993.

The spokesman added that the specific contents of the message would be released closer to Christmas Day.

Previous presenters have included Sharon Osbourne, Ali G, The Simpsons, the Rev Jesse Jackson and the late Quentin Crisp.

So, I guess, then, Santa rides in with his merry team of camels, Mohammed, Mohammed, Mohammed, Mohammed, Mohammed, Mohammed, and Rudolph Mohammed?

Santa passes out scimitars instead of candy canes?
