Christians are so persecuted, aren't they?... <soapbox> For the record, I'm Christian, and Christmas disgusts me. I think a big part of the lack of respect we get from the middle east is due to our willingness to bastardize our religious beliefs.
Its a great way to learn to lie, deceive, and make the act become second nature to your routine. Lie to your Children for the sake capitalism. </> I know not everyone bastardizes Christmas from the spiritual/religious aspects of it - but many many do. Yet we still promote it as if it doesn't matter to us (Christians) - but it should. Its a mockery. -- ME2 On Tue, Dec 7, 2010 at 12:10 PM, Justin Thomas <jat...@gmail.com> wrote: > the non believers can call it Christmas, I do.
