MERRY CHRISTMAS! everyone.
That will tick em off.
I would suggest that patriots are upset that Christians are the only group that can be discriminated against with impunity. They probably think that it has nothing to do with commercialization but rather the failure to recognize that Jesus is the reason for the season.
Very little, except we kind of adopted it to wean folks off paganism some where back in the past. It was apart of the slow blending of the old druid, wican etc. and the new Christianity in Europe I think.
Just got off the phone with the Indian from Chase credit card..got the it was NOT INTENTIONAL to offend Christians...yeah sure. I shredded the card in her ear! And made sure she knew it was going viral. That I as a Christian was tired of having my religion trod on, and it was the reason for canceling the account. I’d had the card for more than a decade.
I lived most of my life without one, so I won’t miss it. Still have a Discover card.
