Happy
St. Nick Day.
Be
sure to celebrate by punching a heretic in the face!
And here is
the story of when Saint Nicholas punched a heretic in the face:
While
at the First Ecumenical Council that condemned Arianism, St. Nicholas punched
Arius in the face and was censured by the Fathers of the Council for behavior
unbecoming a Bishop. His bishop’s mantle and gospel were taken away from him.
But at that moment, an apparition occurred with the appearance of Christ and
His Mother on either side of Nicholas, bearing a bishop’s mantle and a
gospel-book. The Fathers then immediately reinstated Nicholas, and icons of him
to this day celebrate the miraculous event . . .
