So, what's your point? I have no problem with anyone celebrating their religious holidays. The fact is that they aren't national/federal holidays and it's a stretch to say we should use a generic term such as "Happy Holidays" during December to cover none national ones. Say Happy Kwanza then or whatever else someone is celebrating then. I have no problem with that. Say Merry Christmas to Christians during Christmas also. I'm done with this ridiculous argument because we all know what the bottom line is and that's to dilute the national holiday of Christmas and Christianity by using generic terms for it.
So, we should say Merry Christmas to everyone all December? Even non-believers? I believe that would be the ultimate dilution of the holiday. How do you know who is Christian? I don't really have a hooked nose or sleepy eyes. That's just a myth.
Wouldn't this be taking Christ out of the holiday? Isn't making everyone say Merry Christmas to non-Christians part of the "War on Christmas?" I think this would be exactly what Christians wouldn't want.
OK. Then Christmas is just a National Holiday that is not related to Christianity or Christ. Is that better?
Jesus wasn’t even born in December, Christmas is pretty much a pagan holiday and these crybabies get their little feelings hurt when someone says something as harmless as, Happy Holidays”.

No, I already stated that Christmas is both a religious (Christian) and national/federal holiday and that's a fact. Why is this news to you and yours? I'm done with this topic go talk to someone else.

Yeah I'm sick of being called a "snowflake" yet these people can't even handle a greeting as innocent as "Happy Holidays" without throwing a fit. Speaking of snowflakes, I find it ironic that a few years ago they were going absolutely nuts because Starbucks removed the snowflakes from their Christmas cups and went with a plain red cup.

Yeah, those shepherds abiding in the fields meant there was grass for the sheep to munch on. Looks like July to me. And that's what the minister at my church also thought.
The last guy brought Allah into the WH, and made Christians feel like second class citizens because of it. Trump brought God back into the WH and the left hates it.
Trump brought God into the WH?
Did all the porn stars, wife beaters, swamp creatures, Russian agents and Ted Nugent come in with Him?

Are Loonies really that clueless? It's context. He's right. People aren't afraid to mention publicly they are patriots and believe in God.
He should stay with his 2 Corinthians.
