war on christmas
the war on christmas is ultimatly just an asinine excuse for non-christians or bitter people to get a leg up on christians. They hate us, for reasons even i cant conjure, and choose to try to take rights from us.
Now, stop your offended looks. I know I'm coming off as rude, but...don't I have a right too? If i cant go to school and say "Merry Christmas" without someone harrassing me and telling me "I can't say that" umm....last I checked, the 1st amendment says "freedom of speech" and there's another amendment called "freedom of religion". (i'm not a real history buff but there is one that says that). So...they, if anyone, are the ones being rude.
I guess the tone of this post is kind of rude because the overall idea of the war on christmas infuriates me quite a bit. I don't let people know though, because they'll know they can get me angry. A lot of people would say for me to "get over it" or "forget about it" and tell me to stop being so rude. Umm...another thing I last checked, I'm allowed to be mad about something and develop an opinion on the matter. So...if you don't agree with me, it's perfectly fine as long as you don't dog me for having an opinion.
I think I should be allowed to tell my friends Merry Christmas. It hurts no one. It causes no problems. Why does it matter at all? People who dont believe in Christmas put themselves in the position of hearing "merry christmas" at christmas time and they know it. Maybe they need to "get over it" seeing as how we are the ones just passing our beliefs and traditions on. Why can't people just let us? This is our tradition. It's our freedom in America to have what religion we want.
Now, lets say in a strange scenario, christmas was actually some sort of offending, hostile holiday (which is kind of a oxymoron, huh?). Then, i would understand why people were offended by Christians participating in it. But we are celebrating our saviors birth and giving gifts to our loved ones...
...hmm....doesnt offend anyone i know. Maybe the people who have ditched thier ancestors traditons should be the ones that "get over it". Maybe I'm wrong in someone's eyes, maybe i'm insensetive and rude in someone's eyes. But, it's just my opinion, which I'm entitled to, so, don't wet your pants or anything. ^_^
