I am just curious where you guys stand on all of this garbage regarding renaming Christmas Trees and taking Christ out of Christmas?  Myself, I am sick of all these attempts to take God out of everything.  It seems that the only group in America that people don't mind offending are Christians.  Since Christmas is almost I figured we could discuss this.

Well, I'm not a believer like you guys, but Christianity doesn't offend me.  I say Merry Christmas and go to church on the 25th.  It's not like it hurts you to celebrate a Christian tradition, just like it doesn't hurt me to celebrate President's Day or Confederate Thanksgiving (yesterday, by the way).

I despise all politically correctness bullcrap, so you know where I stand.


Personally, if it offends you, TOO DAMN BAD. Go cry in the corner, because I don't care.
Never underestimate the power of stupid people in large groups.  Especially if they have access to the internet.

Hmmmm, I found this:

" The word Xmas is sometimes used instead of Christmas. This tradition began in the early Christian church. In Greek, X is the first letter of Christ's name. It was frequently used as a holy symbol."

With so many other important things going on all around us all over the world, it just makes you wonder what kind of a person worries so much about a holiday's name?, Or the many symbols that go with that holiday.  Some people are just too busy being busy. :rotz:
