They were IRANIANS! Christmas is just some liberal namby pamby love fest keeping us from our sacred duty to rid the world of terrorism. Dick CheneyAs a kid, the three wise men were my favorite figures in the manger scene (besides the animals) because they had the best clothes, and CROWNS, no less. I'm a sucker for crowns.rLOL You're in denial, dear.that snow globe is a new one on me------was it made in
a prison in china?. Are you sure that the old man with the
beard is santa? Maybe he is one of the wise guys from
the ORIENT----who followed yonder star
denial of what? the three wise guys from orient-----is my fave Christmas story.
The story provides a boost to the beleaguered Parsees of the world------some day
when I run into a parsee-------I am going to ask if the story is known to them
I like the MAGIC element-----sometimes they are called MAGICIANS----
-----well "magi" too----- ??? whatevah that means. ----- "following stars"
has all kinds of fantastical elements
They were PARSEES --------Iranians are not parsees (as the words came to
be defined) Iranians proudly style themselves IRANIANS because they consider themselves to be ARYANS------(like adolf) -------PARSEES now reside in Mumbai
and---to some extent in Israel. They went to Mumbai for the same reason that lots of jews went there------it is a port city that was not controlled by muslims. They, very recently, went to Israel for the same reason.
