| "My original protest and it is CHRISTmas" email |
|
The latest spam I got in an email today: (Of course, the media has been dutiful in making this the new wedge issue)
Merry CHRISTmas, an idea who's time has come!!!!!!!! To those who planned on wishing me "Happy Holidays", don't BOTHER!!!! For He is born and my original protest idea is to write all the liberals with a hearty Merry CHRISTmas (CHRIST is in all cap letters) to show them not to mess around with our holiday. Oh, did I mention I put "Happy Birthday, Jesus" in the message too? That should REALLY tick off Hollywood and libbys too! So Merry CHRISTmas to all!

| 2. Why are they so bent on "ticking" people off on Christmas? |
|
No more Peace on earth, goodwill and all that. Now it's just another wedge tool.

| 4. The can put christ in all caps all they want to |
|
But they seldom if ever BEHAVE like christ was supposedly to have taught us to behave. Problem is it's been a long time since their lipservice has matched their attitudes, behavior, and livestyles.

| 6. liberals can be Christians, too |
|
I'm a liberal. I'm a Christian. When did Christmas become "our" (conservatives') holiday? Liberals have moral values that closely align with those of Jesus Christ. Merry CHRISTmas!
P.S. Please, please. Please. Review apostrophe use before you send out mass emails. Please.

There are hundreds of holidays around the world during this month and the fundies act as though they have the only "right" one. JUst how they treat their religion.

I wonder how that person would feel if s/he got an email like:
A Happy REAL New Year, an idea who's time has come!!!!! To those who planned on wishing me a Happy New Year in January, don't BOTHER!!! For the REAL New Year is Rosh Hashana and my original protest idea is to write to all Christian Conservatives with a hearty Happy REAL New Year (REAL is in all cap letters) to show them not to mess around with our holiday. Oh, did I mention I put "May you be inscribed in the REAL Book of Life" in the message too? That should REALLY tick off the White House and the fundies, too! So Happy REAL New Year to all!
Hmmm...has a nice ring to it, no? I bet his/her damn head would spin off! "How dare you attack my religion, but insinuating your religion is better than mine?!" However, I am sure the irony would be lost on him/her!

We may as well all leave. There's nothing left to fight for. America is well past life support at this point.
