There are people in my office talking about boycotting local businesses because they have signs that say Happy Holidays instead of Merry Christmas.
\nWho cares?!
\nThere are a number of “Christian sub-culture” issues that just blow me away.
\nLike refusing to celebrate with Santa Clause (based upon an actual St. Nicholas), refusing to shop at stores that say, “Holiday tree” or “Happy Holidays.”
\nI watched a debate on TV with people who were flamin’ mad because President Bush sent out a “holiday” card that said, “Happy Holidays” instead of “Merry Christmas.”
\nThere are more than one holidays between Thanksgiving and New Years. Can’t we celebrate them all?
\nThe whole issue of having manger scenes and the 10 Commandments on public property bugs me too. I don’t believe either is constitutional. But people who claim they’re faith is so strong, feel they have to have things like this to remind them of their faith in the public square.
\nIf you want a manager scene, or 10 commandments, put them on your church property or your own house.
\nWhen was the last time you saw a church with the 10 commandments posted? Or a house with a large sculpture with the 10 commandments?
\nCome on. Don’t expect the rest of the world to do something you wont.
\nI hope all the baptists that flocked to see The Chronicles of Narnia, didn’t forget the boycott they had against Disney for so many years.
\nI’m quite sure Disney hasn’t changed their stance on anything, but because they produce a movie that was based on a Christian’s writing, its OK to be a Disney fan now. Geeze.
\nMaybe I’m missing the point here, but its really bugging me and I think something should be said.
\nSo there. I said it.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
