Went to Target to get a birthday card today... | |
Sirrx7 User ID: 25439775 United States 11/12/2012 09:52 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | OP is correct in his gripe that Christmas cards being sold aren't religious. I've gotten into the habit of hand making cards I send to close friends and loved ones for this very reason. I'm not overly religious and wouldn't consider myself a "bible thumper" but the birth of my lord and savior is not something I take lightly. I REFUSE to say anything other than Merry Christmas. It gets to the point where it seems to offend some people that I insist on making Christmas about Christ. I'm OK with that though. |

Quoting: Vision Thing The web site VDare.com has a yearly "War on Christmas" competition with news stories about kids getting kicked out of school for mentioning Christmas, companies threatening their employees if they use the word, etc. I used to read it every year but it made me so angry I had to stop. VDare.com "WAR ON CHRISTMAS" articles: [link to www.vdare.com] ----------------------------- This thread is a Christ hater thread --as it was intended, a bait thread. Be glad you did not read this thread. You will not find such hate for Christ and Christians anywhere on the whe internet, send Christians here to witness the vilest low-life satanists on the planet spewing their hate for Christians ....for the world to see. Hate for Christians like you see on this thread is not normal . |

I post on facebook a petition for the target workers to have Thanksgiving off with their families. Target wants to be open for the almighty dollar with a pre -Black Friday start. That is ok if they want to work, I guess.. But they forbid anyone to ask off to be with family a few hours. All have to work. No exceptions. I do not shop Target. The place gives me the creeps. K Mart too. But I do darken the door on occasion. link [link to www.change.org] |

- User ID: 27605885 United States 11/12/2012 10:16 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Christmas isn't a Christian holiday. It is a pagan holiday in honor of the demon god Mithras. And there never was a Nativity scene. There were no wise men at the manger. Only shepherds. The astrologers didn't show up until Jesus was a young child living in a house. The story is so full of lies. Jesus didn't even celebrate his birthday. No Jews did that as it was a pagan custom.

Anonymous Coward User ID: 21288231 United States 11/12/2012 10:30 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Do a tiny bit of research and you'll find that Jesus never had anything to do with Christmas. It is a Babylonian, Satanic celebration sprinkled with a veneer of Christianity. Nothing but an abomination to the God of Heaven. ""When the LORD your God cuts off from before you the nations which you go to dispossess, and you displace them and dwell in their land, "take heed to yourself that you are not ensnared to follow them, after they are destroyed from before you, and that you do not inquire after their gods, saying, 'How did these nations serve their gods? I also will do likewise.' "You shall not worship the LORD your God in that way; for every abomination to the LORD which He hates they have done to their gods." Deuteronomy 12:29-31 |
