A Christmas laugh for me

IM sorry but I just thought this was funny as hell:



http://www.boycottwatch.org/misc/wal-mart01.htm



This league gets all hysterical and boycotts Walmart because of one associate. The funniest part is, they are all offended because the guy let em have the truth. Damned you! we wont have the truth be told.. Boycott Walmart!!! Oh man the sad part is, the got the guy fired.. Yay! way to spread Christmas joy, and spread the word of Christ. Boycott a business, untill you force a man to loose his job during the holidays.



I love how the writer of this and the League, just love to lump everyone together, and catagorize them, as if every person who is a part of a certain group, thinks and acts exactly the same. The league Boycotts Walmart, and put everyones job on the line, because one person said something they didnt like. The Writer of this, lets us know that Jews of every denomination are not offended by the term "Merry Christmas" because they see the USA as a Christian country. Glad to know every single Jew feels that way. Also "When someone sees a person clearly identified as being jewish, they are usually greeted with happy Hanukah anyhow out of respect." Ha.. that cracked me up. This is all the evil works of the Atheists.. Damned them and their "Happy Holidays" .



I mean really how much of a Christian are you, if your gonna bitch and moan, because a corporation wont shout your personal religions slogans. I dont ever remember Jesus forcing religion on anyone, or holding religion over peoples heads, and demanding they do it his way.



Im not trying to offend anyone. Infact im just trying to let people know.. lighten up.. if your a believer, spread the joy.. you gain more bees with hunny, then massive boycotts. Merry Christmas!

    Semantics.



    Although wars have been fought over semantics.

    I am not offended by religion, just the lack of it. Not really even that. Just the fact that non-believers ask believers to not push what they believe onto them, yet they are all to happy to shove the God isn't real thing in our face and get angry if we object. I don't get the double standard.

    Well mostly its not about wether god is real or not, Its about pushing your personal version of god. Its offensive, because although people belive in god, they dont belive in Christianity, and they dont want it shuved down their throat everywhere they go. Also dont lump people into groups. "yet they are all to happy to shove the God isn't real thing in our face and get angry if we object." .. Just because someone belives one thing, doesnt make them a clone of someone else that also shares one idea thats the same. Infact ive yet to meet an athiest that wants to force anyone to believe there is not god. When you catagorize it sounds really bad.. Like all black people love some fried chicken, or white people cant dance, Jewish people horde money, muslims are terrorists, athiests all force their beliefs. The only time people really shove god isnt real in your face is on web forums and the like. The employee in the article never said god isnt real. He just gave examples of where Christmas came from. Jesus wasnt really born on December 25th either, but that doesnt mean he was never born. Its just facts. There are large groups of Christians that try to push the teaching of the bible in school, or creationism. The groups that oppose them are asking that that not happen. They arent asking that we praise Buhdda in school, or that we tell teachers to teach that there is no god.



    How many signs are there on main street that say "there is no god today! merry no god day!"? How often is that shoved in your face in reality? That would be offensive wouldnt it? That would be a true double standard.. but it doesnt happen like that. The signs on mainstreet say Merry Christmas or even Happy Hanukah. To say non believers are enjoying a double standard, is just not the case in mainstream society. Not all Christians, but some groups such as the one in this article are the agressors. They are pushing for their personal beliefs to be pushed on all, the nay sayers in general are not asking for their own views to be pushed, they are simply asking that no views are pushed. Their asking for equality, which is pretty much in the opposite direction of a double standard. Some people are selfish though, and can only see things their own way.. to hell with everyone else.

    You are right in saying that I should not have put people in a group. And actually (though I forget the place that it was put) there was a sign that stated that there is no God that was put up right next to a manger. It was removed/stolen very fast though. There are some that shove it in your face. I was watching (a while back) an episode of Nick News. It was all about religion, or the lack thereof. There was an athiest saying, "we don't want god pushed on us." The next shot was him loading a bunch of "God isn't real" signs into his trunk. I was so taken back by that, because I though that was a bit of a double standard. The guy from walmart did not say anything wrong from what I read. Christmas in fact had nothing to do with Christ in the beginning. It was only later that he was included. He was born in reality, some time in October from what I have heard. I am sorry if I offended you or anybody, but my wording was wrong.

    Nope not offended, and guys that post signs like that are jerk offs. They are just doing it for attention and to rile people up. People that hang Christmas signs mostly are doing it to celebrate, all in good fun, and I can appreciate that. I just didnt think it was in the Christmas spirit to go after someones job, because they didnt share the same view points.. those people are just like the jerk off that hangs no god signs.

    I agree. I don't think he should have lost his job. He was just speaking the truth as far as I know.

    Wow, that's unfortunate.
