Do you know what all this secularism means?

--Names of the following teams must be changed:
New Orleans Saints, Anaheim Angels, San Diego Padres, etc.

--Radio stations ban songs like "God Only Knows", "My
Prayer", "Heaven Must Be Missing an Angel"...

etc

Around last Christmas, whenever I went to the base to shop (I'm retired) I noticed a lot of people saying "Merry Christmas" with an attitude, like, "I'm saying Merry Christmas, and if you want to make trouble about it, bring it on."

Of course, I was glad to return their "Merry Christmas," but I was also happy to see so many people so emphatic about it.

When is this PC bull-sh!t going to stop?

When we actually carry through and QUIT supporting these businesses.All it takes is for everyone to stay as mad as you are now and follow through,before it's too late to make a difference.

Oh-fer-cryin'-out-loud. JAPAN celebrates Christmas--and they get to call it Christmas, too! Christians make up somewhere around 2% of their population!

And I have refused to shop at Target. I also make it a point during Christmas to say Merry Christmas to as many people as I can.

As for the mall. I finish my shopping early and like to go to the mall the week before Christmas sit in the food court with a Diet coke and just watch. :o)

The Money Changers won't change the meaning of Christmas with word games. The hell with Macy's and the rest of the PC hypocrites.

No, they will just change the name of it to the "Holiday Tree," if they haven't already.

You know something -- I read some of the posts here about NYC and Xmas and wonder if they're even about the same city where I live. Yesterday a post appeared about banning decorations in public schools. I walked by a public school yesterday and the windows were festooned with decorations.

Thanks for the post. I hadn't heard about any of this and was almost ready to put my order in at Macy's online. But now, fuhgeddaboutit. There's just too many places I can spend money without spending it at a store that trashes the holiday traditions.

They don't want to p* off their Jewish customers.

Sad, but true. But, ya know what...

Merry Christmas!

Not true at all. They've had Christmas decorations up in past years here in NYC. More than likely, and unspoken, they don't want to make themselves a target.

Just received a discount post card for Macy's (includes Lazarus). We have a Lazarus at the mall in Northern KY and was going to use it there. Not now!! MERRY CHRISTMAS...Lazarus.

I'm cutting my card up now too. I will certainly tell them why.

I'm thrilled to report there is a Nativity Scene in a prime spot in our town. It is in front of church very pretty and prominent. It's been a long time since I've had the pleasure of seeing a Nativity Scene displayed for Christmas.

Another weird one from the anti-Christmas mafia. They keep reaching new depths of banality.

Merry Christmas

Why is Christmas singled out for exclusion?

Christ didn't come to bring peace, but division.
