Shhhhh. Let these people delight in their glee by thinking that a Christian boycott of Best Buy made the retail giant suffer, feel agony, regret, shame and sorrow for their failure to exploit religion as a part of their marketing plan.

It doesn’t “exploit religion” to wish someone a Merry (happy) Christmas! (You haven’t been around long, have you?) It’s the STORES that have exploited religion, not the other way around. We used to celebrate Christmas in this country as a day to celebrate the birth of Jesus Christ. No one fought our right and freedom to do so, even if they disagreed with our beliefs. Now, businesses and unhappy people have turned it into a greedy, mean spirited time of year, with alcohol consumption as the main event. It’s sad to see, along with all the other Constitutional Rights and Freedoms we have lost and are losing daily. The reason you shop at Christmas time to begin with is because of a Christian holiday. “Christmas” is a time of giving gifts to one another, in remembrance of the gifts given to Jesus at His birth. People took our Freedom of Speech and Religion away just because they don’t like what we believe, and CHANGED it into something they preferred...An unholy day! Eventually everyone’s freedoms will be gone..including yours...
