Mornin' BQ. It's ridiculous isn't it. We end up diminishing everybody's holiday by obscuring and deleting the meaning and identity.

That's a shame about where Target put their store in your area. Aren't they actually ultimately owned by some French organization? I thought I heard that. The "Jeremiah was a bullfrog, Joy to the world" commercials just infuriate me.

Well, I refuse to be a part of it. If I say anything at all, it is Merry Christmas. I have never had that met with a negative response. I think workers are indoctrinated into the "holiday" thing. Everybody is so scared of being sued for some silly, bogus offense that they're scared to even be human any more. Well, I draw the line at neutering Christ. It's time we neuter the ACLU.

Here's a link to some interesting stats for anybody who is still Christmas shopping. In fact, I just got this in my email as we were having this discussion.

Blue Christmas

Wow, I haven't heard that commercial. I am so used to throwing the remote at the tv when I hear their commercials. But, I have to go there this morning to buy two gift certificates for my MIL and SIL and also some laundry detergent. So, I am being a hypocrite for now. I'm making sure to give double to the Salvation Army every other time I see them.

p.s. The scenic corridor leads to Saguaro National Park. Target refused to compromise or move their location. They clear-cut a beautiful desert corner when like I said, they easily, easily could have used an already paved over area nearby. I guess it doesn't really make much difference now - the rate the desert is being paved over and all the illegals ruining it too. I keep wondering how long they expect our water supply to hold out.

Now that you mention it, that does sound familiar. Lovely.

I think we should do planning now as a start for next and the future!

We should maybe in the Chat Forum create a site for all freepers to be aware and share with all those who are God friendly of what is going on and a list of those who Dist Judeo/Christian holitdays or God in general and they even mock the patriot days in their commercials, they distort history as fairy tail or just make it confusing.

Young minds who are not taught or are given a revised version in school of this great nation history an hear in commercial today anti American putdowns to laught and have mocking contempt for our American Legacy!

What we need is a list of those who stores and corporations that are God friendly and a list of those who dist God!

Our morallity is blur even in children movies it is use to be subliminal now it is more blant!

I recognized it years ago many thought I didn't have a sense of humor when like a "Rush" moment one could predict the future for we as a good "Natured" people were like that frog in cold water who is being boiled to death!

We must vote with our dollards and we are the creative one to some of those among us with retail gift will figure out a way!

When we shop at these stores "That Dist God & Country!" we are paying for the rope to hang us!
