I understand that for years it's been a point of contention in winter holiday-related advertisements, but last year, I had some people get visibly angry at me when I wished them happy holidays.
I just don't see where all the harsh sentiment comes from. I'm wishing them well, and they apparently assume I'm trying to undermine Christianity. Can someone help me understand this?

I've been married for 8 years, my husband always knew that I was attracted to women. The sexual attraction that I have towards women is so strong now and it makes me sick knowing I can't act on it . But my body aches just thinking about touching a woman, her touching me back, her smell and her taste. There's no easy answer, I don't think. I feel my only options are: A. Open myself up to having a threesome or maybe a foursome B. Have an affair or C. Suppress the feelings that I have and die at a young age. What do you think? Any other options? Serious replies only, please. Thanks.

1) Matthew 1:23 says that Jesus (the messiah) would be called Immanuel, which means "God with us." Yet no one, not even his parents, call him Immanuel at any point in the bible.

2) The Messiah must be a physical descendant of David (Romans 1:3 & Acts 2:30). Yet, how could Jesus meet this requirement since his genealogies in Matthew 1 and Luke 3 show he descended from David through Joseph, who was not his natural father because of the Virgin Birth. Hence, this prophecy could not have been fulfilled.

3) Isaiah 7:16 seems to say that before Jesus had reached the age of maturity, both of the Jewish countries would be destroyed. Yet there is no mention of this prophecy being fulfilled in the New Testament with the coming of Jesus, hence this is another Messiah prophecy not fulfilled.

are Christians following a false Messiah??

It is easy to love those who agree with us but, our enemies we still fight with. I am guilty of that. Please forgive me.

Mine was great. Although my extended family lives far away, and we just moved here so we decided just to go out to eat, I spent time with my family, and called my old friends, and thats what really matters to me.

How did gay guys end up so shallow? Women are with fat guys all the time, they even make TV shows around it. It seems that a majority of gay guys don't have very good morals.

So for the first time ever, I'm looking at being by myself, with no family, maybe a friend or two, on Christmas.

I do have an option of a) hanging w/ my ex-inlaws and my children, b) hanging out with my mom and her boyfriend, who tend to get pretty drunk and mean and nasty and fighting... or c) open presents with my babies in the morning and sit alone in front of my pc all day and all night hating christmas and the very thought of all of it while eating my chef boyardee *as all of my typical kitchens are closed damn u mcdonalds!!!*

I don't feel close enough to anyone outside of family to just say hey, merry christmas, mind if I crash ur dinner, oh wooooowww that turkey looks sooo gooood and plop right down next to them...

I don't want to hang out with a bunch of people who said vicious things about me during the custody dispute and are generally two faced, even if it turned out to be civil.

I don't want to hang out with two drunk ppl, so that I can be a witness for charges.

Prior to the asking of this question by myslef, i came upon a question where a foolish human asked if seeing wolves was an omne of things to come, one escpeacialy foolish human suggested he might get out the garlic and sliver bullets, while it is proven that the werewolf not only enjoys eating silver bullets, adn cannot be dispelled by casting a clove of garlics at its brother. Is this not commen human knowladge or does it just prove how puny the human intellect is.
