Why should I be kind? It's CHRISTMAS TIME! Bring out Sandy Claws! |
It's just because self-identifying Christians (not biological Christians) are the majority of Americans, so it's more efficient to hijack Christrianity the most. The rest follow in turn. Prologue: Music video: |
Not my FIL he goes out of his way to say Merry Christmas. It’s really aggressive. Like a secrete hand shake. |
Well you said "Christmas" sooooooo? I think you can't say it to people on the street, mall, school, work. so there's that if you think about it like that. |
Can you please explain what you think is racist so someone can explain why you are wrong? |
NO. Id rather offend them and make the feel inferior. |
You are portraying your cousin as a mean, angry, rude person. I can’t tell if you are trying to humiliate her or praise her, but either way I hope you both find peace. |
| Christmas is a federal holiday in the US, so by definition, it has at least some meaning to every American. If you are Christian, it is the holiest day of the year. A lot of families who are not religious still treat it as a major holiday with decorations, gifts, etc. People who are Jewish or otherwise non-believers in Christ treat it as a day to go to the movies or otherwise spend time with families. So personally, I wish everyone Merry Christmas and they can take it however best suits their own life. |
Let me guess, you don't have a good relationship with your FIL? |
| Well the people that run the Biden admin are making December 24th a holiday, but they can't bring themselves to call it Christmas Eve. I guess that's progress of a sort. |
Don't think it's really ever been a thing except in the imagination of people suffering from mental illness |
No and spoiler alert...no ones eating the dogs or cats either. |
Helpful tip....Christ would not have voted for Trump or Musk-Merry Christmas. |
Another helpful tip.... Christ wouldn't vote for anyone. Heaven is a kingdom not a democracy. Its more likely He would put a child in charge of the entire nation than endorse anyone you've ever heard of in an election. And we would be better off for it. Merry Christmas y'all. |
And there are those weirdos who give a dirty look if you tell them "Happy Holidays" - guess not so happy for you if you can't take having someone give you an innocuous friendly greeting. Last weekend I was in a Harley Davidson dealership buying a relative a gift and during the course of routine friendly small talk I told the cashier "Happy Holidays" as I was picking up my purchase to leave and he suddenly shot me a dirty look. I feel sorry for the people who have been so spun up and brainwashed in culture war BS that they take offense if you say anything other than "Merry Christmas." |
