"Merry Christmas" Versus "Season Greetings"...

Get rid of socialist entitlement programs, that is where the real waste of money is... trillions
Dumbfuck

So you kind of suck at math, don't you?

Which entitlement programs are you talking about? Social Security? MediCare? Unemployment Insurance. Nope. White people get those, you don't want those to go away.

But if you are talking about food stamps, Medicaid and TANF, that's barely a drop in the bucket.

Who cares really? People can say whatever they want or nothing at all. If you want to act like indignant douche because someone said "Happy Holidays" and not "Merry Christmas," then that's on you, IMO. I'm certainly not out to insult people when I wish them a Happy Holidays. :rolleyes-41: If I wanted to insult them, I would say, "fuck you and I hope your holidays suck."

No doubt, but at the same time why fix what’s not broken.
Political correctness is the last reason to change things, political correctness is for pussies

I wish people Happy Holidays because even if they don't celebrate Christmas and aren't Christians doesn't mean I don't want them to have a happy holiday season! I do want them to have a happy holiday season, so I tell them happy holidays. It has nothing to do with political correctness from my point of view.
 
I'm not a Christian (although I was raised as such with all the traditions) but I am never offended if someone says Merry Christmas to me. I still like a lot of Christian traditions and I am able to see the good that they are capable of doing, as well as some of the bad, like any religion really, except maybe Islam. Lol. If someone I know is Jewish, I am not going to say "Merry Christmas" though. That, to me, is intentionally being rude to someone and why would you want to do that? You are supposed to try to INCLUDE people, not exclude them.

As a conservative, You should have refused to deliver their mail for not saying Merry Christmas

Happy Holidays? No mail for you !

“You go to department stores and they’ll say 'Happy New Year,' or they’ll say other things and it’ll be red, they’ll have it painted. But they don’t say — well guess what? We’re saying merry Christmas again.” :lol:
 
Except are you really being "Well Meaning" when you say it, or is it, "I'm going to impose my religion on the rest of you!"
The United States is basically a Secularized Christian Nation...

Its holidays (Holy Days) and holiday greetings are oriented towards Christianity.

The New World is basically Nova Europa, which, in turn, is the historical seat and bastion of Western Christianity, once removed from its Middle Eastern origins.

That makes the New World - and Oceania - permanent extensions of Christendom.

If one is unhappy living within Christendom, one should seek sustenance elsewhere.

Bullshit. As a card carrying Christian you couldn’t be more unChristian in this response. Jesus was very respectful of others. “Do unto others as you would have them do unto you” doesn’t really mesh well with “We’re the majority here. Fuck you”.

As a Christian living in a very multi-cultural city, I gauge my greetings on who I’m extending greetings to. If I know someone is a Christian, I always use Merry Christmas, and I use Happy Chanukah for my Jewish friends. If I’m unsure of the faith of the person I’m extending greetings to, I use Happy Holidays.

And I would remind you that nearly all of the current Christian traditions have nothing to do with Christianity and everything to do with pagan Winter Soltice celebrations anyway, and that Jesus wasn’t even born in December.
Only a cowardly fool is offended by merry Christmas, They don’t deserve any respect

Back in the early 1980’s, I worked in an office where everyone was Jewish but me. During the High Holidays I got a glimpse of what it’s like to be part of a religious minority.

As Yom Kippur and Rosh Shashana approached, my coworkers were talking up their plans, where out of town relatives would sleep, the high cost of tickets to the Synagogue and other issues. They talked of menus and who was cooking what for the Sader, and compared their families’ respective Sader traditions. I sat and listened and felt more than a little uncomfortable.

I realized that my feeling of displacement and exclusion must be what non-Christians feel in a much larger way as the entire world around them prepares to celebrate Christmas. It made me more sensitive to the feelings of non-Christians at this time of year.

I am appalled that some here are so un-Christian in their attitudes towards non-Christians at Christmas. This is our time to shine. To show the meaning of Love, Fellowship and Christianity. To show that being a Christian truly means showing peace, love and understanding.
I agree, but you’re wrong about the PC part. PC is all about control

Happy Holidays is a better greeting....covers all bases

If I say Merry Christmas, I need to say.....Happy Thanksgiving, a joyous Black Friday, Happy Hanukah, Happy Kwanza, Merry Festuvus, Happy New Year

With Happy Holidays...I cover them all in one shot
 
What is Caesars’? Does Caesars have a limit? As per giving up material things and giving them to the poor, that is for Jesus to judge, not Liberals.

actually, it's for us to judge as a society. I'd rather spend money feeding poor people than paying for a bloated military industrial complex.

If we are judging as a society, then I am weighing in on the government bureaucrats who exploit the plight of the poor so they can fill their coffers and reward their friends first before the money gets to the poor.
 
Try this on for size all you right wing "christians".

Proverbs 14:31 Whoever oppresses a poor man insults his Maker, but he who is generous to the needy honors him.

Proverbs 29:7 The godly care about the rights of the poor; the wicked don’t care at all.

First John 3:17 “But if anyone has the world’s
goods and sees his brother in need, yet closes his heart against him, how does God’s love abide in him?”
James 2:14-17 “What good is it, my brothers, if someone says he has faith but does not have works? Can that faith save him? If a brother or sister is poorly clothed and lacking in daily food, and one of you says to them, “Go in peace, be warmed and filled,” without giving them the things needed for the body, what good is that? So also faith by itself, if it does not have works, is dead.”






I think the PC shackles are just off so folks are finally where I'm at - basically, ain't my problem if you choose to be offended by a well meaning saying ~shrug~

Except are you really being "Well Meaning" when you say it, or is it, "I'm going to impose my religion on the rest of you!"

I don't know or maybe it's just me, but I don't really see this as some kind of competition. Don't bother wishing someone a happy anything if that is not what you are really meaning. At least understand the meaning of the holiday season, good will to all men (and women and children of course), and all of that. :)
You do realize that the “men” that are being referred to are both male and female, right?

There is no need to say “womankind” or huwoman, or anything of that nature.

Better start trying to catch up with right wing Christians on giving to charities then.

You all are sort of way behind....
