I will respond before I even read your link. I think Christmas as we know it should come to an end. Truly, it is not about Jesus anymore. You won’t find lights, or a tree, or any kind of traditional Christmas decoration in my home. I have decided that Christmas is a holiday for retailers. It is no longer about Christ. That, and the fact that all of our traditions have Pagan roots. I’m done celebrating Christmas... and I’m not the only one.
I apologize for the lack of HTML coding; that is why I previously posted an excerpt of my blog because I am not schooled in HTML. But some FREEpers took offence to my posting and excerpt, so... that’s why it looks crappy.
These people are no better than Saudis.
The Cheese Eating Surrender Monkey response to the commercialization of the celebration of the birth of Jesus Christ our Savior.
The small number of faggots and atheists that have so much power in this country have that power because the majority of those who claim to be Christian put all the sins they love on their "Christian Liberty" list and check it twice to make sure they can be naughty not nice.
When it comes to publicly celebrating the birth of our Savior Jesus Christ, though, they figure why bother taking the celebration of Christ back from those who stole it when it's easier surrender to the world on that the same way they surrendered to the world on everything from murder with contraceptives to ordaining queers to show them they're loved.
It's real hard to do that if you have kids. In our case, we do have secular/cultural decorations but also have the TV tuned to EWTN. And the Nativity scene displayed prominently.
Since you feel strongly that Christmas as we know it should come to an end, would you please provide for us all a list of businesses that you, your children, your family or friends own, operate, work for, or profit from so we can stop buying their goods and services and other things that help us celebrate Christmas as we know it. Since Christmas sales sometimes make or break a business I’m sure you wouldn’t mind if all of the ones you and your family are associated with lose lots of money or better yet, go out of business.
