every religion that has celebratory days have just as much right as your Christian ones do



that is why we say Happy Holidays and not just merry Christmas



YOU pretend ONLY Christians matter

I say "Merry Christmas". If the recipient speaks up saying that they don't happen to celebrate Christmas, I just smile and say "Oh alright, then I wish you a very lovely day". It never fails, we both smile...maybe laugh or shake hands and part on peaceful terms. No big deal.

You know something, I'm really sick and tired of these morons every Christmas season coming out with their God hating garbage trying their best but failing every year trying to spoil everybody's Christmas with their anti theist, atheist propaganda. Some people actually feel sorry for them. Not me, I think they're vermin with a 0 tolerance level for any God fearing Christian or anyone who believes in the reason for the season.

We are the ones who are tolerant of them, year after year, Christmas season after Christmas season. They are the ones with 0 tolerance for us.

The poor little babies are soooo offended that they have to be annoyed by our religious celebrations.

Do I mind it? Yes.......but I choose not to give that much power to other people to rule my life with attempts to rob me of my God-given peace. I do not fear what people say or may do to me, I fear the One who will pass judgment.

"What you have spoken in the dark will be heard in the daylight, and what you have whispered in the inner rooms will be proclaimed from the housetops. I tell you, My friends, do not be afraid of those who kill the body and after that can do no more. But I will show you whom you should fear: Fear the One who, after you have been killed, has power to throw you into hell. Yes, I tell you, fear Him!"
Luke 12:3-5

I take that to mean he's against their visual or vocal criticisms of Christmas.
