“The folks in Athens, Texas should ‘invite’ the folks from Wisconsin down so they can try to take down the town’s nativity scene.”
That’s what I was thinking. I’m sick to death of these small fringe minority groups trying to tell the majority how to live their lives. It’s past time we say, “you don’t like it? Too damn bad.”
They don’t want a “Christmas Tree”, instead the want a “Holiday Tree”, they don’t want the kids to wear red and green in school, it’s too religious. They don’t want to hear merry Christmas, they want happy holidays. When I hear Happy holidays I ask, “which holidays?”
If you call a sows ear a silk purse it is still a sows ear. When you say “happy holidays” everybody knows you mean “merry Christmas”. I get terribly annoyed at the religion haters who want to ruin my life so I can be miserable like them.
To me a Manger scene is an emblem of Christmas, just like Merry Christmas, Christmas trees all the lights and even red and green. Why do they care?
