I agree completely

Happy Snowbird 12-24-2013 08:48 AM

I agree. Don't take Christ out of "Christ"mas.

CarolSells 12-24-2013 08:52 AM

And capitalize Christmas.

Ceafolks 12-24-2013 09:55 AM

Merry Christmas...everyone. :wave:

red tail would have had a very nice post if he'd omitted the "religious freaks" comment and had capitalized Christmas!

Completely agree. I just saw another post "Merry Xmas and Happy Holiday to all." It makes me cringe.

One of the posts that says that is from someone who truly does have THE Christmas spirit. I think it is just a question of semantics. OR whatever.


We don't need to see harm where none is intended. There is ENOUGH for real bad stuff in the world and on this forum.

BS Beef 12-24-2013 11:40 AM

I didn't intend any harm….honestly. I didn't reply in that post for that exact reason. Maybe I should have just said "When I see Xmas when referring to Christmas it makes me cringe."

Truly I didn't mean to offend. I've been "attacked" on this site before (see "death row visit", though most of the most hateful posts were taken down) and I certainly didn't like it so would never want to do the same to someone else.

you have to have thick skin on here. I don't think I have ever posted without a few attacks! I never use caps when I use the internet and even that brought an attack! anyway im done for a while.

merry Christmas all and may there be peace on earth some day.

Merry Christmas..to anyone who wants it..peace.
