For real, considering all the stupid things people believe and celebrate, I can't get real excited about Christmas and Jesus dolls.
Well, if she (and YOUslotted said:
) don't believe in Christ and find the concept so offensive, you should have to call it something else.In fact, I'm calling Congress RIGHT NOW to make them pass a law saying so. AND I'm getting my money together to pay off the Supremes to uphold it.
So there

sometimes it is not a matter of whether you believe in Christ, but what you know about history and how the early church was founded and how it was run, and what changes have happened over the years as Christinaity chaged from a small Jewish cult to the dominant religion in the dominant political power of the Western world.
Oh no you won't! Or I will ridicule you mercilessly and force you into compliance! AND I will get a law passed that says you MUST do as I say because the very idea of you saying "Christmas" as a non-believer offends me. I'll sic the ACLU on your raggedy behind.slotted said:

Why should I call it something else? The christians perpetuate lies because that's what they were taught to believe. I've always called it christmas because it's what it has always been called. :shrug:
I'm not trying to tell anyone what to beleive, but dammit, I'm tired of being told to shut i[ because I believe differently. This isn't in the religion forum, so if the christians have a problem with it, they should bow out. I've bowed out of the religion forums. :shrug:

A simple, "Yes, I can't bother to show a minor amount of respect during the Christimas holidays to those that celebrate the birth of Christ" would have been much more direct from those who celebrate Christmas just for the gifts.
But, hey, its much more fun for everyone to kirk out instead of find a little shred of respect in their lives.

Nobody is telling you to shut up. They are saying its Christ's birthday to them, so don't get upset that they are trying to make it about Christ. I don't think any of them could care that you don't celebrate Christmas without believing in Christ. Just don't get upset when a holiday, that in the current world is recognized by the majority as the day to celebrate Christ's birth, is made to be about Christ's birth.

Don't call it "Christmas" if it pisses you off so much. Call it "Winter holiday" like the schools do. Call it whatever you want - but get off the people who celebrate Christ's birth on that particular day.
