I am not outraged. I just find it curious that they both used the same terms. You don't find that the least bit odd?

Nope, not at all. Fox news used the same term, do you find that odd? And with your previous post, where is the outrage from the left that you saw. The only outrage I saw was from the unhinged right.

No.

I'm not seeking out conspiracies, though.

This is where I and the President have the largest issue.
I don't want a President that stirs up drama every week.
I want the President focused on doing his job, not being a Social Media diva.

Hell even actors and musicians take breaks to prevent over saturation, people get tired of the daily TMZ stuff from this White House.

Is this a big story? I already noted it is not, but yeah, one should use the correct words. Words have meaning. I've done it and people have corrected me. I didn't lash out. I said "Yeah, you are right".
Why did you bring up devil worshipers. I'm not the one whose day has been ruined. Regardless, the description Obama and Clinton used is accurate. Sorry I participated in this silly thread.

"Attention Walmart shoppers...."

I have no doubt you all are demanding Walmart correct their grammar since in no universe can the announcement indicate shoppers at Walmart. It can only mean shoppers shopping for a Walmart store to purchase and they should be getting in touch with the Walton family or their attorneys for that request.

Where were you when you found out that they failed to put the word Christians in their statements?
Where were you when you found out that Trump didn't either?

You don't think people attending a church service on Easter Sunday are anything but Christian, do you?

What about the people who were in hotels? Are/aren't you offended because they were/weren't mentioned by religious denomination? Were all of them Christians? How would you know? Does it matter?

some don't see the reason why the distinction between "easter worshippers" and christian is important.
Because the phrases describe the same group of people, it would be redundant to use both phrases.

So what's the point in using "Easter worshipers" at all?
Because they were worshiping on Easter Sunday?

A lot of people use the phrase to describe people who were worshiping on Easter Sunday. Because they were ... worshiping on Easter Sunday.
