you go girl....while we're at it we might as well tell them to come down off their crosses and use the wood to build a bridge so they can get over it.

Okay. Here is my little side-rant where no one will see it. Because I'm really not interested in fighting about this. I don't see why we can't just all get along when it comes to the holidays. But I just left the General Religion forum where I'm already seeing the Christians complaining about the fact that they can't say Merry Christmas and that this season is all about Jesus. What about Haunakah and Yule? These were holidays long before Christmas came along. Wht are Christians so angry at being asked to show a little religious sensitivity? They can celebrate Jesus' birth all they want and say Merry Christmas to each other all day long. But why is it so horrible to ask that they show a little sensitivity and say Happy Holidays when in public or with people they don't know? Okay, that's my rant. And Saturnalia, the Eponalia, Hogmanay Day, Mithra's birthday, and sometimes Diwali falls in December. It's a gigantic month of partying! I actually rotate my greetings. It's funny as all get out seeing people try and figure that out. |

So far I've never had an issue with holiday greetings, they say merry christmas, and I'll reply with have a peacefull Yule (and likewise for the other holidays) I've got the occassional confused look from christians with my reply lol but that's about it so far.
I try to never judge anyone elses religion, because I think faith is good to have no matter the form it takes, some of its followers may drive me nuts at times (and that goes with my own faith as well) but as long as no one tries to "convert me" which would end poorly for them, I really don't care :) |
