It seems as christains we have been hiding out there, afraid to say it loud and clear - It's Christmas , that's right Christmas- the birth of Jesus Christ - a time to reflect , amend , change, love each other, help each other, no matter what color, religion , gender etc. It is time to walk the path. It is not about the man made mess that men have made of the church originally established by Jesus, with the true message, we can change it back one by one, person by person. Just like the apostles denied Jesus, I think that in some ways we are doing the same; His message, salvation, do unto others as you would have done unto you ; not a tough message to understand or live. Stand up out there!! MERRY CHRISTMAS !! Your thoughts, comments

Merry Christmas to you. By the way I am Jewish. I have no problem celebrating anyone's birth. Heck, I am going to a birthday party for a friend later. It's funny these moments are always felt as uplifting and joyous. I don't have to beleive its your birthday, but what the heck I will be there for the party! This time of year always comes with enthusiasm. I look forward to seeing most people in a more cheerful mood than their normally grumpy demeanors. Everyone I see seems happier. No problem!

at the same time as I understand your frustration, doing the things you're speaking about doing would make you no more desirable ideal than the persons who've pissed off you. keep in innovations the Civil Rights move? Did the blacks who needed equivalent rights go round lynching white human beings? Did they throw issues, curse at, and spit on white human beings? No, and no. want equivalent rights? you're going to must be more desirable civil, the picture of the African-individuals were lower than Martin Luther King, Jr. Peace! Edit: precise, because doing what you're speaking about doing would not reason human beings to grow to be indignant. And did you do not ignore that to his lack of life, James Earl Ray insisted that he did not assassinate Martin Luther King, Jr.? also, there is not any longer some thing to point that he became a fundamentalist Christian, so if you're going to make that fact, you'll more desirable ideal locate some thing to back it up.

Onward Christian Soldier
Marching as to war.
With the cross of Jesus
Going on before.
Christ our Royal Master
Leads against the foe.
Forward into battle
See His banners go.
I'm with you, Brother. Make a JOYFUL noise unto the Lord!
A VERY Merry Christmas, indeed.

You're seriously living in a dream world if you think the world is suddenly going to be at peace!I agree with you,I would love for everyone to hold hands and get along but it's not going to happen.People these days are greedy they lost the meaning of christmas-they think it's all about presents but it's not.But there are gangs out there and war in iraq.Murderers rapists and theives.Wake up and smell the coffee man-it isn't going to happen but I wish it would.

Thank you for your question. More people like you need to speak up - loud and clear. Unfortunately we are considered 'politically incorrect' I'm glad to be in that category.
Please God, may this message be mediated on by all who believe in the birth of Jesus CHRIST, savior of the world, our hope in this life and in eternity.
How sad you must be how we have commercialized YOUR birthday. Please free me from this quagmire which has become meaningless and commercialized.

Hey Guy, Keep it up.
Actually Jesus was born in October.
Christmas is something like Thanksgiving. Just a day of rejoicing, a day to say thanks.
You have a nice day.
