‘Stop that bulls**t’: David Spade mocks tree-lighting ceremony that avoids use of the word ‘Christmas’
Comedian and actor David Spade offered an example of people deliberately avoiding even mentioning Christianity while trying to keep the faith’s holiday traditions in place.
Spade made the comments about a local mall ceremony to light a non-Christmas tree on his podcast with fellow “SNL” alum Dana Carvey, who agreed with his criticism. The “Fly on the Wall” episode was published on Sunday.
‘I’ve never met someone from another religious faith that was upset about a Christmas tree.’
“I will say that Christmas is taking a little bit of a beating lately,” Spade said.
“It is December, and I saw the other day there was a tree-lighting ceremony for the Christmas tree in some dopey mall, but it said ‘tree-lighting ceremony,'” he added. “And they were careful not to say the word ‘Christmas’ during the whole ceremony.”
“No!” Carvey responded.
Spade went on to mock the idea of lighting a tree for a non-Christmas holiday reason.
“Why? So it’s just a tree?” he asked.
“To consciously avoid that, then what is the tree for?” Spade continued. “A December to remember? Is it a Lexus dealership? Why do we have — for the whole month? Isn’t it for Christmas?”
Carvey pointed out that Christmas has come to include everyone because it has become somewhat secularized.
“I’ve never met someone from another religious faith that was upset about a Christmas tree,” he added.
“I’d say stop that bulls**t,” Spade said.
“Yeah, ’cause everyone loves Santa and the tree and all the trappings,” Carvey replied.
“They like all things about it,” Spade said. “Don’t say that word.”

Spade also made brief mention of the horrific persecution of Christians in Africa.
“Like, is this where we get the hammer? You can’t say that about anyone else. … We’re taking a beating down in Africa. It’s like, this is not the year to be Christian. I will tell you that,” he added.

Christian NFL star apologizes after reference to kids’ game that likely left LGBTQ crowd seething
An NFL star running back who has been outspoken about his Christian faith is facing criticism for uttering what some call a gay slur while live on television.
Bijan Robinson of the Atlanta Falcons was celebrating the team’s upset victory over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers Thursday when he joked about playing “smear the queer,” a common kids’ game.
‘It was not reflective of my beliefs and I am so sorry to those I offended seriously!’
Robinson was talking about a play during the game that appeared to be from backyard football and added, “Smear the queer, that’s what this is, smear the queer!”
Someone on the set quickly tried to correct him by saying, “Kill the carrier,” a more politically correct name for the game.
On Friday, Robinson posted an apology on social media.
“Hey everyone I want to apologize for the insensitive comment I made in the broadcast, it was a football game we used to play as a kid but that’s not an excuse,” he wrote.
“I recognize the mistake and make sure to do better in the future,” he added. “It was not reflective of my beliefs and I am so sorry to those I offended seriously!”
Video of his comments were posted to social media, where it garnered millions of views.
Robinson has often talked about his Christian faith and established a foundation to give back to society in four areas: “Faith, Homelessness, Youth, and Literacy,” according to his website.

“I do all the things that is necessary for me to continue my relationship with God. Even after games, in postgame interviews, I never go without saying ‘God’ first,” he said after getting drafted for the NFL.
“I play for Him. I play for God,” he added. “I do everything in my life for God, so He’ll only continue to keep blessing you. My faith is my biggest thing.”
