I agree people should always respect others faith and never belittle it or make fun of it. I would never want any person to feel they could not celebrate whatever religion they believe in. In my view I am just happy that people believe in something.
If someone stops talking to you because you are an atheist they are not true Christians nor friends. If I ever stopped talking to everyone in my life that was not Christian I would be a very lonely person. LOL
You know what they say Ms. Cyber Queen.
It is not the QUANTITY of friends. It is the QUALITY. Quite frankly, I could care less what race, sexual orientation, gender, religion you are as long as you are a good friend.
I certainly hope your friends are quality friends.

I am very blessed I have some wonderful friends. And they are everything from Christians to Muslims, to Hindu, to Buddhists and there is even an atheist in there.
I like how the hack "reporter" who yelled after people, why are you ruining xmas for the kids, we're just trying to protect the children...
People who hide behind that garbage of "it's for the children" are liars and scoundrels.
Funny, I got a rep comment to stick to the EU section for posting this.
What maroons.

What a silly comment.
If the employer closes the business, then you can't go to work on that day. You understand that, don't you?
It's a federal holiday.
I never turn down the chance to not go to work.
How about year-end performance bonuses; just because you call it something, doesn't mean it is so.
Your experience is not necessarily the experience of others.
I never refuse presents. Of course, my friends and I usually donate to food banks or other causes for each other.
How does that have anything to do with celebrating the winter solstice?

You have a lot of learning to do before you compare the taliban to any religion that doesn't shoot rape victims in the head and in front of her kids. And who in their right mind agrees with your disgusting comparison? Oh wait, I saw a bunch. Shame on you all too.
Where was the FORCE TO CELEBRATE? No one was asking any one to wake up on 12/25 and celebrate the birth of Jesus. No one was asking any one to partake in Christmas Eve celebrations.
As long as ALL religions are kept out of public schools, not a problem. No Chanukkah, no Ramadan, no Kwanzaa, no nothing. And NO teaching of ANYTHING that has a religious twinge to it. Sorry, no holocaust teaching, it was a religious plight so..nope. Gotta keep all the crazies equally happy.
And keep all your religion at home, while you're at it. No head-gear allowed in schools either. No days off for anything. You want total separation of religion from state...there you go. And until that happens? Knock it off.
Might want to look up the history of xianity.
Keep it out of public. period. Not just the schools.
So, a proven historical fact can't be taught.
Are you a holocaust denier? Thought you might be.
BTW, nothing in your bible, especially the new testament, has been proven.

Stop it you godless pot smoking man hating liberal hippie commie.
It wouldn't be xmas without crazy Bill. That was the most bizzare piece of "journalism" I've ever seen. Do you think he EVER get's embarassed by the things he does? I get embarassed FOR him and it's uncomfortable to watch.

I live in Boston and this was fairly big news up here. Lots of op ed pieces that pointed out the stupidity of what the Chelmsford School committee was doing.
They've been having this holiday sale for decades where kids bring in things to sell in order to raise money. All of a sudden an edict comes down that none of the sale items can have Christmas connotations?
This idea was braindead on arrival. All Bill O did was report on it and Jesse came up here to call them out on it.
Liberals love to celebrate diversity, just as long as it does not include Christians
