I REFUSE to take Christ out of Christmas....THIS IS MY RIGHT! and no one is going to take it from me..we have had different beliefs from different religions for YEARS! why change things now! If you don't believe in Christmas just smile and walk away...say nothing! but don't take MY right away....And if I want to pray in public, school, say the pledge of allegiance I am going to do it!!

just want to know how you all feel about this one!

I applaud you I do to say Merry Christmas, when sales people say Happy Holidays, I repeat myself and sometimes I give tell them point blank what I feel. Most of the times the sales people agree with me, they are following their orders from work. I say phooey this is an free nation no one should DICTATE what can be said period. I am sick and tired of commericals and all the media taking Christ out of Christmas. It has been a religious holiday since the 700's and no one should change it now. I worry that in years to come our grand kids will not know Christmas of the past. That scares me....Christmas has always been a beautiful holiday acknowledged by all..
