When I was working over summer, we had Christmas Cards/Wrapping Paper, and tins/tubes of Christmas Chocolate come in in JULY! To make it worse people were actually buying it...and there was Christmas Songs being played in a bar I was in last week, its ridiculous!

I dont think it's 'P.C' to call it "Christmas" anymore - you know, multicultural thingy-stuff. Uhm........"Happy mid-winter-solstice-anual-gift-giving holidays"? :withstupid: Urrm, no, solstice is associated with the nature worship religions - might offend them.

Maybe "happy dead-guy-nailed-to-a-wooden-cross season"? Nope, that would be against the jewish community, as they don't belive he was the "Crist" - prolly non P.C against the Romans too. And maybe those against desecration of human corpses........ should I include Necrophiliacs in that too....anyone know??

Maybe "merry turkey slaughter day" ??..........hmmmm, no that would annoy the animal rights lot. Vegetarians, Vegans, Fruitatarians, and those who abstain from all food consumption (those still alive anyway), may be offended too.


Then again, as Richard Dawkins puts it:

"So divorced has Christmas become from religion that I find no necessity to bother with euphemisms such as happy holiday season. In the same way as many of my friends call themselves Jewish atheists, I acknowledge that I come from Christian cultural roots. I am a post-Christian atheist. So, understanding full well that the phrase retains zero religious significance, I unhesitatingly wish everyone a Merry Christmas."

R.Dawkins


So maybe it's time to get over the P.C *Male domesticated ungulate, subfamily Bovinae of the family Bovidae, excrement* and stop feeling like we all need to apologize to everyone, for segments of our country's culture and past history..........*sigh* like that's actually gona happen. :lol:

happy Bah, Humbug! too all. :rolleyes:

Hmm point missed i think lol

Christmas is religous right so i personally feel that taking christ out of christmas just makes a mockery of what christmas is all about

and for what someone said about not being called christmas as its not PC well what a joke, i dont go telling jews or muslims they have to call there religious events something else, the PC correct lot can go shove there PC correctness where the sun dont shine
