I say MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!! You got a problem with that?

[Truthmatters]

Christ mass,

Why does this all "inclusive" title have to honor your religion only?

Happy Holidays makes it everyones.

In the last couple of decades the right PRETENDS someone is attacking christ if he doesnt get top billing.

You are not the only people on the earth , like it or not.


Americans come in all sorts of packages and you are just one type of American.

The season is for all of us NO MATTER what importance you place on it.

 

[rightwinger]

I don't believe I said I have any problem with somebody saying Happy Holidays to me. I am pretty sure I didn't even infer that. I have a problem with those who resent my saying Merry Christmas to them.

So if you know that someone is of another religion, or of no faith, do you still say Merry Christmas to them?

What harm does it do? If someone says Happy Kwanza or Happy Hanukkah to me I'll say thank you and you also back, if they say Merry Christmas, I'll say it back, it's simple courtesy if nothing else.

It is that easy....they are being polite, just be polite back

What I do is say Happy (whatever they said to me) back to them with a smile and add a "Merry Christmas, too".

(Unless they just cut me off in traffic, then I'll say "fuck you" - well, depending on my assessment of whether they can kick my ass or not. )

My understanding of how things work here is that you are wishing the other person joy, happiness, love, well being and good tidings of what ever your holiday may be.

You offer yours, and they may or may not offer theirs in return. The point is you are offering a greeting of your own.

I know of no jewish person (in my experience) who was ever been offended by a greeting of merry christmas....they may offer happy Hanukkah in return. I know of no aithiest ( in my experiance) who has ever been offended by the greeting merry christmas... they usually offer the same greeting they are given in return.

So say what ever you want.

That is the problem TM.
When you say happy holidays it excludes the very reason for the season. Christ's Birth.
Thus the title of the holiday. Christmas. We are celebrating Christ's birth, with inclusion for all on a religious holiday.
It is a FEDERAL HOLIDAY called CHRISTMAS.
When you exclude the name of the holiday, Christmas it excludes the majority of this nation who celebrate it as Jesus Birth and makes the minority have the top billing.

It is a Christian holiday and so is Hanukkah. They are both a religious celebration.
Hanukkah is a Jewish religious holiday but I don't see Americans wanting to exclude their title because it is only a Jewish holiday.

 

[SAT2]

Happy Holidays goes all the way back to when I was a kid-and it was shorthand for "Merry Christmas and Happy New Year".

The war on Christmas is a right wing fantasy.

I can easily imagine some of you getting up in somebody's face and saying "And Merry Christmas, too, Dammit", and thinking you've struck a big blow for freedom.

TM - believe it or not, there are people on the left who believe in Christ, including President Obama.

It is not just a right thing. Truthmatters;

(Barack Obama Christianity Today, January 2008) "I am a Christian, and I am a devout Christian.
There are plenty of Democrats who are Christian too.

Let's see. "Good morning" has its origins in the German language. Germans were Nazi's at one point. Some call the right, Nazis, so, using TM-logic, saying "good morning" is partisan.

Does that work?

This is reality SAT2
In a bold move against Christianity, the Wisconsin based non-profit organization Freedom From Religion Foundation issued a cease and desist letter to Henderson County Commissioner Joe Hall, ordering the removal of the nativity scene adorning the lawn of the county courthouse in Athens, Texas.

When Christians are not allowed to display their religious beliefs in public, it is a war on Christianity.
Their Freedom from Religion is in violation of of our religious right of the first amendment.
It's freedom of religion not freedom from religion.

Then that COURTHOUSE has to allow EVERY religions decorations on it all year long.

Why cant you people follow the constitution?

 

[Truthmatters]

Religious demographics were almost 100% Christian when America was founded.
Christmas was established as a Christian Holiday.
76% or more of Americans list some form of Christianity as their religious faith.
America has welcomed and accepted people of many other religious faiths but these still make up a relatively small percentage of the population.
In one way or another, Christmas is observed by almost 100% of the U.S. population either as a religious holiday or as a secular holiday.
Christmas, as Americans have observed it, is largely an American cultural tradition.

Most of my non-Christian friends celebrate Christmas as enthusiastically as the Christians and ad their own traditions to it.

This joke was sent to me by my Jewish friend and neighbor

The Teacher asked young Patrick Murphy: "What do you do at Christmas time?

Patrick addressed the class: "Well Ms. Jones, me and my twelve brothers and sisters go to midnight mass and we sing hymns; then we come home very late and we put mince pies by the back door and hang up our stockings. Then all excited, we go to bed and wait for Father Christmas to come with all our toys.

"Very nice Patrick," she said. "Now Jimmy Brown, what do you do at Christmas?"

Well, Ms. Jones, me and my sister also go to church with Mom and Dad and we sing carols and we get home ever so late. We put cookies and milk by the chimney and we hang up our stockings. We hardly sleep, waiting for Santa Claus to bring our presents.

Realizing there was a Jewish boy in the class and not wanting to leave him out of the discussion, she asked, "Now, Isaac Cohen, what do you do at Christmas?"

Isaac said, "Well, it's the same thing every year...Dad comes home from the office. We all pile into the Rolls Royce; then we drive to Dad's toy factory. When we get inside, we look at all the empty shelves...and begin to sing: “What A Friend We Have in Jesus”. Then we all go to the Bahamas.

The point, is why should it offend ANYBODY to celebrate Christmas as Christmas in churches, in the community, in the schools, and in our homes? If you don't believe in Jesus, there is still Santa Claus and the Grinch. For more than 170 years, American schools enjoyed Christmas plays, Christmas concerts, decorated classrooms, put up a Christmas tree, and enjoyed all the great traditional music, religious and non religious, of the season. Somehow none of the Buddhist or Jewish or Hindu or Atheist kids were corrupted or left out in the least during all this time and most participated and had a ball. It was non coercive, a joy to participate in whether or not somebody was religious, and the high point of the year for many communities.

When there were kids of other faiths in our groups, we learned about and celebrated their religious festivals with them, sang their songs, and learned their traditions too. They didn't demand that Christmas accommodate their beliefs and we Christians didn't demand that they accommodate ours.

Why can't we still do that? Who or why is Christmas being made a derogatory term that 'might be' offensive to somebody and therefore should be avoided or put in the back someplace? What is it to you Atheists, anti-religious, anti-Christian, or others that finds Christmas such a threat? Why is that creche in the public square so offensive to you?

And you Christians and others who love Christmas? Don't you miss the freedom to celebrate Christmas that we once had?

Merry Christmas everybody!!!!! I want to celebrate it!

See how Merry christmas has been turned into a way for the right to say FUCK YOU to people who dont share their religion?

How very christlike
