Do we really need to argue on this subject?

Funny, it's almost the exact same thing with the gay marriage argument. lol hipocrites.Originally Posted by Sasquatch
I like Kung-Fu.
Trashing long-established traditions and religious beliefs because some people have problems with religions? Yeah, that sounds similar. I don't know how it's hypocritical, since it's similar, but hell, that doesn't stop you from thinking it.
Either is fine...but Merry Christmas sounds better. :(
That's similar to my situation, Rye-chan. I was merely debating as to whether or not basking in material delight is REALLY celebrating the holiday as it was meant to be celebrated by whoever created it.In response to Ansem, I'm athiest and I celebrate Christmas. Not in a Christian way, but in a commercial holiday type of way, as Christmas is just that. I like getting presents and giving them and being with loved ones, plain and simple, and that, in my opinion, is what Christmas is.
I say Merry Christmas to non christians and bah-humbug to christians I belive the best way to be politicaly correct is to treat everyone with equal disrespect

I daresay it's not.I was merely debating as to whether or not basking in material delight is REALLY celebrating the holiday as it was meant to be celebrated by whoever created it.

My point exactly.
Of course not, but why do we have to celibrate a set way? Why can't we be atheists and celebrate too? I would expect someone who supports liberalism as much as you do to understand that.That's similar to my situation, Rye-chan. I was merely debating as to whether or not basking in material delight is REALLY celebrating the holiday as it was meant to be celebrated by whoever created it.
I'm pretty sure the desire for material wealth was invented in the 1960's. Before that, money was considered bad luck and receiving gifts was a personal insult, and everyone was very moral in a very Christian kind of way all year long, especially on holidays. I'm <em>pretty sure</em> people walked uphill both ways to and from church too. Oh that the world has come to this.
What? Is that Dr Unne sarcasm? Because if it was I'm not totally picking up on it.
I do, I do. I only disagree with Christmas references in public. Celebrate it any way you wish, I care not, as i celebrate it, but only as 'Exmas'. I support political correctness because I do not desire confrontation.
Don't create any, then. Instead, try and share the harmless joy people feel during this time of the year, for whatever reason. No-body likes a party-pooper.I support political correctness because I do not desire confrontation.

Because it doesn't occur to you that political correctness doesn't avoid confrontation, just shift it?
