[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Today I was talking to a Mongolian woman who checks me out at the place where I buy lunch.  She asked me if I was mad at Starbucks.  Is said "no, don't like their coffee, so it doesn't affect me."  She said she was a Buddhist but would never buy their coffee because they ruined Christmas for her.  M'kay.[/quote]

Gotta say, if your Christmas depends on what design Starbucks uses on their cups, that's just sad.[/quote]

I think its far beyond "the cup" which in and of itself is silly. However its the tip of the iceberg, it's not being able to say it elsewhere, it's not being able to "thank God" in certain places namely on a most sacred ground...the almighty football field lol.

What is our world coming to? On a side not, I personally have no problem with someone telling me Merry Christmas and I am not Christian. Lived in France for 4 years, everyone says it there, in fact you never hear the equivalent of Happy Holidays.

Look at any store in Dec. everything screams Christmas. Am I offended, absolutely not. I delight in the holiday and I do think it feels like a universal holiday celebrated by the world over. Sundays used to be a sacred day, now it's like any other day (sadly) let's keep at least a holiday like Christmas special and stop these silly antics.[/quote]
