I told my brother the other day that this will be the best Christmas we had in a long time......
Many people are going back to the REAL reason why we take the time to celebrate Christmas....
Merry Christmas

Hey AFA: it’s “Cabela’s”, not “Cabella’s”.

But he did point out that, especially in this type of economic environment, retailers are being careful not to alienate customers. Ho ho ho?
Normal people outnumber the perverts and the shoplifting culture, combined, 10 to 1.
Retailers can hold on to their anti-Christmas dogma as long as they want.

The Spirit of Christmas may be the greatest ever. God is moving across the country. Not Hope and Change but Faith and Hope.

We actually don't need a Christian Taliban.

I was in a Target store the other day and there were banners everywhere with the greeting of “Merry Christmas.”

Christ + one is a majority.
To: Bad~Rodeo
Meanwhile, the wife (see the tagline) is ordering “Seasons Greetings” picture cards from Costco. No problem from me — I always considered cards with preprinted signatures more impersonal than regular cards, so it gives me the opportunity to write something == namely “Merry Christmas” == on them all.

(Don't overthink common sense)
To: Morpheus2009
Christmas is a celebration of the birth of Christ, it is not His real birthday. It is not a Biblical holiday (holy day). So it is not a sacred holiday in that sense.
If retailers want to benefit from the event called Christmas (since one of it’s tenets is gift giving), they should stop trying to act like the reason they are advertising ISN’T Christmas.
That is all anyone wanted.
If they are trying to sell products based on Hanukah (sp) or even the made up communist Kwaanza celebration (barf), then they should mention those reasons, also.

The merchants finally realize that if they want to appeal to certain segments of the population, they cannot use general terms like ‘Happy Holidays’ or ‘Season Greetings’. The Christians are not happy about it, the non-Christians don’t care. Using generic terms would also prevent them to use a specific terms other than Christmas: Kwanzaa, Hanukkah, Ied Fitr, etc.

Good news. But sadly schools are still saying WINTER SOLSTICE BREAK and whatnot political correctness. Teachers are afraid of prayer in schools and pledging the flag still...
We know who wins in the end though.

Has been and always will be my favorite Christmas carol.

I’ve seen a Sears commercial and a few other large outlet stores using the word ‘’Christmas..’’ Glad to see it and hear it.
