The "Christmas" issue

for the past 2000 years, we have been celebrating the birth of the christian lord and saviour. and roughly 18 years ago (maybe more), the beginning of christian deculturisation had begun. Immigrant peoples (mostly middle easterners) had found it unjust to call christmas because they dont believe in christ. Thus "Happy Holidays" was created. so now everywhere you go, every Christmas, erm sorry "Holiday special" you see is lacking the word "Christmas"

I Dont get what their problem is... They chose to live here, but yet they are going to hctib about something as small as the name of OUR holiday.. i say if they dont like it, they can go back to their countries of wartorn poverty and fear.(not racist or anything, just intolerant of people whom we grant citizenship to to save their life, and they nit pick @ every little thing, also this is not directed 2 all mid easterners) You dont see us going to, lets say afghanistan, and saying "you know, i dont believe in allah or anything... so i dont accept the name rammadan, lets change it to Holidays =D. You Know what would happen? your brains that thought up that sentence would be splattered all over achmed's lap. so maybe its just because they can get away with it here, but this is changing our culture... look 100-200 years from now (providing we dont go nuclear by then) will our religious culture be the asme as it has been for over 1200 years?

not finished but i g2g

Re: The "Christmas" issue

To tell you the truth its not Middle Easterns complaining, its pretty much atheists and Jews, and yes, some Middle East. But you cant just start saying:"OH! PEOPLE WANNA BAN THE WORD CHRISTMAN?! AND HOLIDAY?! MUST BE THOSE DARN MIDDLE EASTERNS!"

I hope the news didnt tell you that "Middle Easterns" was the cause of all of this...

Maybe its time for america to wake up and stop listening to the news...because to me it seems like they gotta blame the "Middle Easterns" for everything.


Or instead of telling all these lovely people here about MIDDLE EASTERNS, you can start some kind of petition to help stop this Christmas issue...


Sorry for my grammer/spelling.
God bless...

Re: The "Christmas" issue

But it's not just America.

Same thing in the UK.
And yes, the news did tell me that it was mainly ummm, Eastern countries lol.

We're not allowed a cross on our hot cross buns (a school in England had to remove the cross on it) because it's an Easter thing and symbolises Jesus on the Cross. I have no idea if hot cross buns are sold elsewhere, so I'm explaining lol

And Happy Holidays is the political correct version of saying Merry Xmas, because, we don't want to offend anyone.............

I'm not religious, but, it certainly does piss me off that it has to be happy holidays in case we offend someone.

Even a while ago, The Sun (a UK paper), had something in about our troops in Afghanistan (or where ever ) and a page/poster, saying bring our troops back. And was England orientated. Proud of England type thing.
The woman's neighbour (who was Indian), was offended by it, not being English and all and wanted it taking down. Which of course caused it to be in The Sun.
Which is a tabloid paper though so

Re: The "Christmas" issue

Even tho i am an atheists i call it Christmas and hit people who call it Xmas even tho i don't really believe in a god or anything i do still think of it as Jesuses birthday because Jesus was a cool guy and is not afraid of anything.

Re: The "Christmas" issue

I know its bad to say "hate", but I hate people who complain about those races/religions who think "Christmas" should be taken out. All I have to say to them is, **** YOU. I love Christmas sooo much, but it saddens me how those inconsiderate bastards dare to change the name to happy holidays and whatnot.

Re: The "Christmas" issue

ok get this i am atheist but i love Christmas and never want it to go away! i dont think that Christmas has to be about the religious crap it its about bringing people together its about family and caring for your fellow man. and the presents are nice too!

so do i belive i should be able to say "merry christmas" hell yeah i do let everyone bitch at me i belive what i chose to and christmas is just what we have always called it. and christmass trees should be everywhere in december because they just liven the place up a little bit (and they have that fresh pine smell usualy)

yes these ppl piss me off stupis muslims arabs *****s and stuff come to our country and dare bitch about "rights" and shit like the right to cover thei entire face to hide their identity. it pisses me off anf makes me want to kill eery singleone of them if youcome to our god damn country you live by ou god dman rules PERIOD or get the**** outta our country PERIOD. who the **** are you tocome to our country which we are ncie enough to let you in. when we are arleady 96% fo the population chinese/middle eastern already. and go around acting like yoursome big shots and you deserve this or that period if you want to live in our country you lvie byour rules if youwant something changed for yor religion to ****ing bad you know wtf you were getting yourseld into when came here thats to bad if you don't like it get the **** out.

if you dont celebrate x-mas to ****ing bad. x-mas is th biggest holiday in canada/usa (and many other places) and these stupid foreiner pieces of shit wanna dare call the name of our most important holiday "unjust" cause your stupid worthless religion doesn't believe in it well to fing bad for you bitch deal with ur or gtfo of my country.

i apologize for this uber rant but this shit pisses me off hearing all the tiem about *****s pakis and other ppl bitching about their religion and bitching and trying to get their rights and stuff in our country. these people are a disgrace to humanity and all deserve to die. these people clearly dont care about the ppls country but only abut ther only peoples wants and needs. not everybodies.

now i live in canada and if i was the PM i wouldn't let a single chinese or middle eastern person into the country. theres already way to many of yu in our country to get your own country. everywhere i go all i see is chinese and middle eastern people. and it pisses me off. if i wanted to be surrouned by chinese people id go to china. so chinese gtfo of my country. learn to stop popping out babies every day and use something called condoms. or at least go to some other country.

chinese people are by far the dumbest ppl in world history its liek the chinese race was made t be mentally retarded. they are so dumb and dont know how to live in modern society. im sorry but this is known fact based on experience (im surround by chinese ppl 24/7 every day and i know how dumb they are) and if you were me youd feel my pain.

so my final say is to these disgraceful peOple is

PUT UP OR SHUT UP OR GTFO.probably might get a temp ban or perma ban for this rant but i don't care this is what i feel.

very soon Canada will be fully chinese and become china 2 already like 95% fo the population of canada is chinese.

government needs to lay the smackdown and not let any more ppl into canada. espeically chinese which will pop out 1212 kids a year and become overpopulated like their homeland is

Re: The "Christmas" issue

Well, I wont delete your post (I will merge the double post though ).

I think it's fair to say that there are a lot of people out there that share your views so Im willing to leave it here unless anyone objects to your rant (in which case pm me and I will delete it).

I dont share your views though and I dont appreciate having to read your views myself, not the way you posted them. You dont really prove much of a point other than to prove that you are a racist.

Merry Christmas to you.
