Kind of sad isn't it that we have to say "Happy Holidays!" instead of Merry Christmas. And the atheists say that christians force their beliefs on everybody. More like the opposite when it comes to Christmas.
Sorry, but christmas is a christian holiday - not a generic one for everyone to go shopping. If atheists/agnostics don't like it, then celebrate Festivus or something and leave Christmas alone!!

That's not true; you can say Merry Christmas as much as you want, and the actual number of people who are offended by those words is very, very, very small. You must have been watching Fox News.

They just opened up a detention facility down the street from me to hold all the people that say 'Merry Christmas' instead of 'Merry Xmas'.
Be careful, folks.

You didn't hear that on the news. Isn't lying a sin?
Calling me an idiot doesn't turn your lie into the truth. You're allowed to say Merry Christmas if you want to.

They cannot stop you from saying that in a public school.
Freedom of religion, the freedom to practice your beliefs DO NOT END just because you're on school property.
Your rights do NOT end.
Offending others? What about the Christian that is offended?
Stand UP for your faith, stand UP for God.

those people should not get christmas off from work. If they are scared of the name of Christ it shows you he is real.
Seriously.
It shows you there is a spirit of anti-Christ.
thanks for the PROOF satan!
