Last year they blocked e-mail complaints, and maybe they will again this year. Either way, don't shop at any of those stores, even if it means paying more.

would you consider making a small tax-deductible contribution? Click here to make a donation.

Ah, now we get to the heart of the matter.

This is the copy of the e-mail that came to me and many others in the last hour. Decided to post it knowing it is very important.

I don’t care if they use the word “Christmas.” There’s enough Jews who celebrate Hanukkah that the generic term “Holidays” is appropriate.

THe strangest is google.

On their home page, they have altered logos for every day of note imaginable, except Christmas and Easter.

If Christians, and I am a Christian, are so concerned about the lack of attention Christmas is getting from retailers, then maybe we should celebrate it when we are supposed to.

I Called the 800 no., the phone rep was courteous and admitted the word Christmas was not in any of their stores due to the “many ethnicities”. I stopped her, uh, what 85% of America does Christmas???

I could hear it in her voice she knew I wasn’t setting foot in any of their stores. But she was sweet and honest. And I kindly told her that.

I don’t know a single Jew who objects to the use of “Christmas”

Looks like the San Francisco based company is focused more on pushing their anti-Christian agenda rather than focusing on providing families better products at better prices.

Christmas is not a time to push a political agenda, but rather a time to celebrate and reflect on the birth of our Savior, who died for all man’s sins.

It is also strange that those who wish to mock Christ and reject the word Christmas use “Holiday” instead. Holiday means Holy Day. Holy means sanctified and set apart by God.

What did our Lord promise would happen if you became His follower?

I don't think He promised Merry Christmas signs in the heathen stores that push whore fashions on our daughters.

If He did, it's not in my Bible.

Mine says He promised that the world would hate you.

I was in Staples the other day looking for wrapping paper.

Every one was “holiday” or snowflakes, but they did have “Happy Hannukah”

I sure am glad we have people around with enough time on their hands to worry about inane things like this.
It’s such a relief.

They do have one on Christmas. It’s secular not religious. Just like the date December 25th has nothing to do with Christianity, but was stolen from the Romans.

At the public high school where my mom works, they are forbidden from using the word “Christmas.”

Hannukah, Kwanza, Ramadan, etc are all ok, except for Christmas.
