That “alleged” war on Christmas has yielded great a victory to Satan

In seems to be inversely related to effort people put into decorating their houses with Christmas lights.

Mass murder, drug addiction, rampant crime, child abuse, sexual deviance, gender confusion...coincidence?

That’s why Islam makes such easy inroads into our society.

I don’t begrudge Obama and his “Happy Holidays” message. It’s pc and maybe Christmas wasn’t his holiday.

Dunno.

But, feels great to have the President say “Merry Christmas”.

Because, it is Merry Christmas....

Daniel Stowe Botanical Garden - no Hobby Lobby - had signs in the gift shop saying, “We say Merry Christmas!”

I’m sure I’ll be flamed for saying this, but I firmly believe that the debacle known as the Second Vatican Council was the catalyst that triggered the increasing exodus of formerly faithful Christians of all persuasions throughout the world.
And I think it’s very unlikely that the pews left unoccupied are going to be filled by the newly converted.

Please. There are so many of you saying that. Nobody can be bothered to “flame” you, sorry for the indifference.

Merry Christmas. Viva Nuestra Senor de Guadalupe. Happy Solstice. Happy Pat’s Birthday!

Can’t really evaluate this poll without seeing the questions.

I also think these are such nebulous questions without definite choices (Clinton or Trump is a defined choice) that the results are questionable.

“Happy holidays” is okay with me:

Strongly agree
Agree
Neutral
Disagree
Strongly disagree

I don’t see that as a concrete choice.

>>There are so many of you saying that.<<

Not sure what you’re referring to here. In any event, you don’t need to apologize for your “indifference,” but when you say “nobody” that’s a tad presumptuous isn’t it?

Oh, I don’t know. Wait a few hours and see if anyone can be bothered to “flame” your banal interpretation of history.

Don’t dispare folks. I go to church at Ft Lewis weekly and half of the congregation is made up of younger folks. God’s will be done.

‘Wait a few hours and see if anyone can be bothered to “flame” your banal interpretation of history.’

took me all of five minutes to flame your silly response...

and, just curious, how is this interpretation banal...?

Every point of view has multiple adherents.

And gosh, it’s almost 10:20 and nobody has “flamed” him. Want to take a bet - $20 to Free Republic - that nobody does by sunrise tomorrow, EST?
