hoghntr Report post Posted December 8, 2014 MERRY CHRISTMAS & enjoy! YOUR FIRST CHRISTMAS CARD Twas two months before Christmas When all through our land, Not a Christian was praying Nor taking a stand. Why the PC Police had taken away The reason for Christmas - no one could say. The children were told by their schools not to sing About Shepherds and Wise Men and Angels and things. It might hurt people's feelings, the teachers would say December 25th is just a ' Holiday '. Yet the shoppers were ready with cash, checks and credit Pushing folks down to the floor just to get it! CDs from Madonna, an X BOX, an I-Pod Something was changing, something quite odd! Retailers promoted Ramadan and Kwanzaa In hopes to sell books by Franken & Fonda. As Targets were hanging their trees upside down At Lowe's the word Christmas - was nowhere to be found. At K-Mart and Staples and Penny's and SearsYou won't hear the word Christmas; it won't touch your ears. Inclusive, sensitive, Di-ver-is-ty Are words that were used to intimidate me. Now Daschle, Now Darden, Now Sharpton, Wolf Blitzen On Boxer, on Rather, on Kerry, on Clinton ! At the top of the Senate, there arose such a clatter To eliminate Jesus, in all public matter. And we spoke not a word, as they took away our faith Forbidden to speak of salvation and grace The true Gift of Christmas was exchanged and discarded The reason for the season, stopped before it started. So as you celebrate 'Winter Break' under your 'Dream Tree' Sipping your Starbucks, listen to me. Choose your words carefully, choose what you say Shout MERRY CHRISTMAS,not Happy Holiday ! Please, all Christians join together and wish everyone you meet MERRY CHRISTMAS! Christ is The Reason for the Christ-mas Season! Wake up America 11 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Zeke-BE Report post Posted December 8, 2014 The gift is Christ! But out of respect for other Religions if any one said Happy Hanukkah to Me I would gladly say it back to them! Or any other belief they had. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lancetkenyon Report post Posted December 9, 2014 To the OP, AMEN. To the other posters, I agree also. But why eliminate Christmas, just for political correctness? Too much political correctness, and not enough goodwill from all religions lately. 6 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

5guyshunting Report post Posted December 9, 2014 I was raised a little religious and spent time in church. As an adult I dont think I need to donate money to a religious group. They can call it what they want. To me its MERRY CHRISTMAS. If some folks want to re-name the day, OH WELL. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

PRDATR Report post Posted December 9, 2014 It'll always be Merry Christmas to me and mine. I see nothing gained in proselytizing about it. Kinda goes against the very spirit of what it's all about. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
100%DIYazCOUES Report post Posted December 9, 2014 I see what youre saying prdatr,but its not what its all about to everybody out there.not everyone shares our beliefs and just like I wouldn't wanna be crapped on for mine I won't crap on others for theirs.at least that's what I believe in...the general theme for all the holidays is family,love,charity...doesn't matter what religion (or lack thereof) it is,if you're about those things during whatever holidays you celebrate,you're cool in my book Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Snapshot Report post Posted December 9, 2014 Christmas was formed because of the 3 wise men who traveled to visit, and celebrate,Baby Jesus. They came bearing gifts. Exchanging gifts is based on this event, and so is the Christmas Holiday. Christmas has become extremely warped by Capitalism, as well as the very people who try to demonize it's meaning. I bet some of these people partake in the Christmas Holiday in some form or fashion. The very people who are offended by Christ in Christmas. And I bet many of them profit from it. I say Merry Christmas.Always have, always will. If the PC police,atheist crowd, and non believers, don't like it, they can all line up and kiss my shiny white hiney. 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
