Happy Holidays or Merry Christmas?

Merry Christmas Jespah. I would also be more than willing to celebrate Chanukah with you, but it would be silly for me to wish you a happy one, since I'm not Jewish.

It is simply an expression of the season and where come from, it certainly isn't meant to offend. In fact most here would be offended by those who were offended by it.

This mentality is the exact problem.

The ideaa that: I have a way of expressing good esteem during Christmas. I do it where I come from, and it's okay. It should be okay if I say it to someone else. If they don't recieve it well, it's not my problem.

It's littered with poor assumptions.

I think "you're" argument is just litter.

OK.
Next time u r outside a swanky restaurant,
throw some nice cash around.

Diest, trolls gain strength only when fed. If this thread continues downhill, I fear it will be locked.

We can only hope

I hope you had a great Christmas, Montana.

I make no claim to be a great speller or grammaticaly perfect. For that matter, I really don't care to be either on an oline forum. Attacking my spelling or typos, is pretty much a clear sign that you've exhausted yourself of any real valid arguments.

cjhsa,
Why don't you take your little war to another thread? Your current posts have nothing to do with the topic. You are now into a flame war and I would prefer that you did not use my thread for this purpose.
Thank you.

Obviously being non-PC bothers you. It feels good.

Do u really want 2 make an issue out of the words?

Yes.
That is the subject matter of this thread,
as I understand it.

Quote:

Do u think u r in a place where you can make that argument?

Yes,
altho my position is more an EXHORTATION toward encouraging Christians
who wish to restore the status quo ante
concerning celebration of Christmas in America,
to re-direct their spending practices,
rather than an argument.

Quote:

Tell anyone you like Merry Christmas,
just dont demand other's to do as well.

It has always been against my policy
to give orders or to make demands
that I cannot or will not enforce.

I have never DEMANDED that anyone say ANYTHING,
but I reserve my right to select from my options
upon the basis of conduct that I observe in front of me.


P.S.:
If u think that my libetarianism compels me
to subordinate MY FREEDOM below someone else 's, u r MISTAKEN; VERY mistaken.
In addition to being a libertarian,
I am also PROUDLY a hedonist, and I have ALWAYS been a very, very selfish man.
I recommend that policy to everyone.

MERRY CHRISTMAS & HAPPY NEW YEAR !
David

If u wish to avoid spirited disagreement on emotional levels,
then u 'd do well to confine your future threads
to non-controversial issues.
