A perfectly good holiday celebrating the collective greed of children and adults in a materialist, capitalist society is being ruined every year by a group of people claiming something about a baby being born during a census.
Who needs that? We have Santa and his reindeer. Let's get rid of these three wise guys who go around giving people gold (alright lets keep the gold) frankincense (stinky) and myyrh (stinky stuff to cover up the smell of dead bodies).
We need more holiday sales and less Salvation Army money grubbing.
More waiting in line for $20 DVD players all night and less midnight mass.
I say keep Christ out of our sacred holiday.
Keep Christ out of X-MAS.

If you don't believe in Christ, he isn't in your Christmas and no amount of Christian b*tching about it will change that.
Christians are just as guilty of feeding the greedy child monster and non-christians are just as guilty of simple human kindness in donating to the Salvation Army.
It is not keeping Christ out of your sacred holiday. It is keeping Christ out of my secular holiday. Why the hell would Christians celebrate Christmas if not for Christ?

The holiday that people observe and so look forward to would have to be banned. Since Christmas is to celebrate the birth of Christ. It is not for the expensive presents etc. It is to laud the one that was born of a virgin. Presents are given to each other in memory of that time so long ago when Christ was given gifts of the three wise men.

Christmas does not exist. It WAS called Yule. It is Winter Solstice. Christ wasn't even born in December. More **** ripped off by the Christians.

Not at all! Do you realize that without Christ there would be no Christmas?? Christmas is the celebration of Christ's birth, not just a random day to give and receive gifts.

Let's make X-mas a floating holiday and tack it on to a Monday, so we get a long weekend out of the deal!

I'm don't go around during Xmas preaching about Jesus, but I do believe that he is the main reason a lot of us (including I) celebrate Xmas.

Christmas will always be Christmas. Replace it with all the letters you want. Christ lives on!

You can work on this all you want,but you can't win.You can take his name out of everything,but you can't get rid of him.The devil thought he had him beat when they nailed jesus to the cross,but he defeated death,hell and the grave and so he shall always.Give praise to the true spotless lamb of God .Jesus Christ
