Perhaps I choose my fights. And the fact that I'm not going to change someone ELSE's belief system is not something I'm worried about.

Why is it that the people at Target aren't allowed to believe something different than you?

They can, thats not the point - this is about making an argument for Christians not to support their policies. If you support Target, libs or anything else - go for it. But this is a Christian nation - founded on Christians beliefs, and to remove the term Christ from this holday is disingenous and secular. 85-90% of all Americans are Christian - we wouldnt want to offend the .1% Muslims? Christ is the reason for the season.

The boycott is about Target and other retailers abandoning their own past support for the holiday.

In this time, they have added support for Communist holidays, gay holidays, and African Nationalism.

They have embraced the left and shunned Christians.

They are well within their right to do so. It is foolish to believe that they are following the same path they were once on.

I oppose political correctness. It is the liberal agenda and has infested industry as well as institutions of learning and government offices.

Opposing political correctness does not mean opposing women or minorities. It means opposing the entrenched notions of "thought crime" for dissenting from the liberal agenda.

A culture war is waging. Too few people took too soft of a stand for too long.

Some of us don't like to undergo re-education/indoctrination under the guise of "diversity training".
