Isn't it funny that in most cases those that insist you say "holiday" instead of "Christmas" are the same ones that have the biggest problem with Christmas even BEING a holiday in the first place.....

This is stupid beyond anything...

It’s CHRISTMAS!

I refuse to say Happy Holidays, and when someone says it to me, I say Merry Christmas back at ya.

This is “tolerance”?

Those who demand tolerance are the least tolerant, as always

Yes. And they are often the same ones who have their hands out for the handout, too. Either that or they want to take over and decide who benefits.

In my area, the county government “helps” the churches who donate items to the poor by identifying needy families and dispensing the church donations. But the government prevents any mention of Christmas or church or God and behaves as if the bounty is coming from the benevolent and caring government. I will no longer donate via my church because of this.

They’d have no problem with anything to do with Islam, you can bet money on it.

How warped do you have to be to make this decree?

Amazing to me how Freedom OF Religion has somehow morphed into Freedom FROM Religion. Unless its Islam—then it mandatory.

The culture and traditions of this great nation have been destroyed by the leftists. Now, they are determined to destroy our economy.

Commie college correctness strikes again. Someone should lock these loons up for their meddling in our national CHRISTIAN holidays.

Christmas was declared a NATIONAL holiday in 1870 by President Grant.

I wonder if they can still call it a “Yuletide confifer”?

ADF sent a letter to officials at Western Piedmont Community College urging them to either reconsider their decision to censor the word “Christmas” – or else face a possible lawsuit.

Time for the airing of grievances and the feats of strength - these people need to be beaten bloody with a Festivus pole.

This was decided by someone. They should be identified by name and publicly shamed.

Yes, this purging of Christmas is stupid and offensive. But it is a state school advertising the trees for the club on its web site. I can see a fear of a lawsuit from the other direction motivating them as well.

Say "FELIZ NAVIDAD" instead. It is Spanish for "HAPPY NATIVITY" and is VERY Christian, directly referring to the celebration of the birth of Jesus Christ.

Then, when the libs and atheists so much as open their traps complaining about THAT, immediately pull the racist/bigot card right back on them and assert that they are anti-Hispanic and Intolerant.

Two can play this game.

I am serious.

Fluken anti-American terrorists are everywhere in this country these days. College campi are crawling with them.

“You there, members of Congress! You can’t be passing laws respecting an establishment of religion on campus!”

“But, we’re students selling Christmas trees!”

“You look like members of Congress to me! I’ve got my eye on you.”

I’m a retired AF and current DOD civilian. We got an email telling us about this years squadron “Holiday” party. Someone else replied to all and asked “Which holiday?” The silence was deafening. And the Booster Club and others actually wonder why participation at such events has been taking a death spiral over the last decade.
