The Swedish Church in New York is having Donald Duck show up on Christmas Eve. What does this have to do with Jesus?
11:00 Meet at the manger for the whole family. 15:00 Donald Duck and Karl-Bertil Jonsson's Christmas Eve appear in the Chapel 17:00 CHRISTMAS EVE SERVICE
Swedes too? I knew the Finns have an obsession with him, but damn...

He is the promised duck.
Because of the yellow/blue motif that Donald has and how he represents Scandinavian culture. Not only that but Donald is extremely popular in Europe; more so than his rival, mickie
He's practically in office, I'm amazed he's got time for a trip to his homeland

Nobody likes mickey mouse, he's too much of a bore. Although the new shorts might be changing that, I don't hang out with too many 3-year olds.

I think that's a showing of the cartoon that has been shown on Christmas Eve in as good as every nordic country since like the 1970s.
It's just a tradition and the church is just doubling as a community center.
>not worshiping Donald Duck
You guys are the worst. I bet you aren't even a member of his weekly comic.
Why is he so based, /int/?

Donald does what we all wish we could do but cannot due to reprecussions
Question for Swedes:
Do you also watch this movie every Christmas eve and do you have a hilarious one-man dub of it like we do?
>>52062435
Nope, but this thing and home alone are shown practically every christmas.
>>52062476
You guys are missing out.
The weird commie cinematography and the dubbers funny lady voices and theatrical reading is one of the best things about Christmas Eve to be honest.
And Cinderella is kind of a qt too
>>52062476
I watch that every single year with my dad
>>52059650
strange, Donald duck is portrayed as a bumbling idiot here
>>52062559
Eh, haven't watched TV in 15 years. Although I used to watch this every christmas.
>>52062607
I don't watch TV otherwise either, but I always make sure to watch this with my family on Christmas morning, it's just too comfy.

It's basically an immutable tradition of Swedish Christmas celebration. Here's an article written from an American Jew's perspective:
