War on Christmas

[YWN666]

I can hear the plaintive tones in your voice. let's be clear here.

NO ONE is proposing that churches be denied the right to put up whatever display they wish on their private property. The "impositions" you have described are all assertions of a specific creed on shared public property. And, that seems to be an imposition on others, in that context.

So, the "war" on christmas isn't really a war at all, just a clarification of WHERE Christmas celebrations belong, and where they don't.

To pretend otherwise is disingenuous.

That post deserves a

So you want to violate the Constitution and commandeer the government to promote your religion and roll your eyes at us for complaining? We won't allow ourselves to be doormats anymore. We have the Constitution on our side so get used to it or move somewhere where there is a theocracy.

it's not like Christians have cooties or anything!!!! you'll survive.. really ya will..

The only flaws with christmas:

1. Christians think it's their religion. Face it, it's nothing about christians except one tiny misplaced myth.

2. It's slowly creeping into other holidays.

3. It's the same songs, movies, and images every year and that's just annoying.

Yeah, Christmas is taking over the entire fall. It always cracks me up to go to the drug store and see Halloween, Thanksgiving AND Christmas decorations all displayed at the same time.

To many, that is correct. Sadly, to many others it seems to be the prolonged whine of an entitlement junkie. Why don't you quit whining and ask yourself, what would Jesus do?

Why Jesus would ask for another piece of birthday cake!

God needs them to. He's unable to handle his own promotional activities.

Do you ever post anything intelligent or is it all cutesy blather like the above? Points are made and instead of discussing them and/or refuting them, you act like a 2 year old to avoid addressing those points. You're not fooling anyone.

And the one I went to yesterday didn't.



Couldn't find them. Did find one on Fox that said they put him up front cause he was a big guy. Maybe they thought he'd somehow control the crowd because of that. No mention of him being a greeter though.




Maybe they just hire them for grand openings.

As greeters that you say don't exist.

Christmas - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Christmas is an annual holiday celebrated on December 25 that marks and honors the birth of Jesus of Nazareth. The date of celebration is not thought to be Jesus' actual date of birth. It may have been chosen to coincide with the winter solstice, which the ancient Romans celebrated on December 25.

No, he'd probably make sure everyone else got some.

He would magically multiply the number of fish and loaves of bread. Oh, if only he would do that again in places like Somalia today.

Dudes, don't you know that God was busy getting 4 million Americans a better deal on their car insurance this month from geico.com?

Hey Ravi, did you notice something when Katrina hit?

The 9th Ward was DESTROYED........however.........Burbon Street (you know, the one with all the gays and sex, and drinking and debauchery?), was damaged VERY LITTLE.

I don't think it's so much that God smote the "unholy people", as it is that He smote the tight-assed individuals who claimed to know what He was thinking.

poor poor excludeds, don't get no good car insurance,, that just sux
