There not a real religion then, they are classified as a cult in the eyes of the American public,and that local council will be looking for a knew place to live and work.

Well, it does have pagan roots and we all know that Dec. 25 is not His real birthday, and it never says anywhere in the Bible that we should celebrate it anyway.
Besides, with the way we act around this time, greedy, knocking each other over for specials on Black Friday, it's just become a big free-for-all.
All this other stuff that you're talking about is just some of the fallout of the holiday. It's getting too big, too controversial, and I wouldn't mind seeing it phased out. We should be generous and kind to each other all year, not just now.

living in the Uk makes me realise how weak we are as a nation because we always consider other religions, Yes we are a fantastic multicutural country but our main religion is christianity, catholic.
now with all the mixed religions we dont want to offend anyone, what bull... t. If I was in pakistan and said something about there religion I would probably we executed.
england needs to wake up and realise that slowly our culture that we were born with is slowly but slowly been thrown aside.

So, even by your own sources, it is not the religion or the people of that religion, but the shcool and the local council.
You contradicted yourself. Most Muslims ahve no problem with it.
Also, most of these stories turn out to be false, just right-wing people making stuff up getting all foaming at the mouth about those pc liberals when most of it isn;t true.

that's lame. I'm Muslim and I would not be offended if my child got sent a Christmas card around Christmas. It would be good for them to learn about other cultures, religions and holidays. It's important to be open-minded about everyone's beliefs.

If they ban Christmas they have to ban every single other holiday of the year and that includes all holidays that all other religions celebrate.
This whole thing is getting way too out of hand.

The only people who get offended are Muslims. They are intolerant of other religions.

I think its ridiculous, nobody is harming anyone. We've always had Christmas in this country n ppl from other countries know this, therefore they should accept it when they move over here!! They're tryin to change the country to suit THEM and i wouldn't bloody have it!!!!

Did you ever notice these same non-Christians never turn down their Christmas bonus at work or the paid day off?

Because their religions are businesses rather than spiritual.
They see Christianity as a competitor.
