Several different religious holidays celebrated around the same time of year? Date arbitrarily for Christmas chosen by Romans, as Fugelsang points out? What's wrong with being inclusive of more people? Why can't Christians be more like Christ? To quote Gandhi: "I like your Christ. I do not like your Christians."

don't see many these days and if real people can't see how unreal KKKristianity has become as THE tool of this oligarchy disguised as a christian nation, then happy holiday is okay because christ has been lost and/or replaced with the god of money during this bullshit buy, buy, buy season of "goodwill toward men".....ameriKKKa has effectively destroyed christ as a symbol of peace and love. Now, the exception IS the white christ all say, was/is. Of course he's always been good, for all merry Xmas.

You don't get to define Christianity any more than the people you are railing against.

I am a Christian. I celebrate Christmas as a religious and a secular holiday.

I like Christmas. You don't. Your post is one of the most offensive things I have seen here. If you railed against Muslims or Buddhists as much, you would get a hide, or you would get banned.

so I got more news for ya: ameriKKKan christians have defined KKKristianity.....I really could care less about you being offended by my total disdain for this and most organized scams called religion. I have had personal offense perpetrated against me by MAINSTREAM KKKristian churches and their members based on my skin color and my choice of partners in life. Don't offend me or threaten me with some kind of banning, burning at the stake or whatever. AmeriKKKan KKKristianity is racist and that hasn't changed in many a generation. Celebrate on....I could care less about Xmas. Have a good one
