I’ve worked with professional Americans who happened to be Muslim my entire life. They want the same thing you do. An opportunity to give their children a better life then they had.


Is that what muslims are doing when they commit acts of terror? Just giving their inbred children a better life?

When a muslim father kills his daughter for dating a white guy in the US, is that giving her a better life?

You have your head up your arse if you're white knighting for people who think it's their moral responsibility to kill you.

This suicidal empathy has to stop. It's the dumbest thing I've ever seen. An entire group of people too stupid to fight for their own survival.

No, but it happens at my work every year, for pretty much any mainstream cultural holiday besides ones based in Christianity. Can you help theorize why that is?
Because pretty much every religion has a winter solstice holiday, and it is easy to just cover all of them with a generic greeting?

Easter stands pretty much alone. Do you ever hear a generic “Happy Spring Holiday?” Of course not. You hear “Happy (or Hoppy) Easter.”. (Easter is the more important Christian holiday anyway)

No one is oppressing you.

Unless you are on Google where they ignore Easter altogether. But don’t worry, they will acknowledge other non-Christian holidays.

but it’s a shame that a grown man “doesn’t even know” what the most festive holiday is in the world’s second largest religion.

Damn dude. Save some wokeness for the others.

I’m not surprised at all. It’s a cult, not a religion. IMO and the opinion of many others.

Whether one believes or not, CHRISTmas is about the birth of Christ.
Merry Christmas!

This is a country of SEVERAL faiths.

Would you want “Happy Eid” shoved down your throats?

Or Kwanza?

It’s a Christian Holy Day, The Feast of The Incarnation. Christ’s Mass.

Honor it or don’t, but don’t inhibit, impede, or deny Christians’ faith and how they practice it.

But, it’s only the First Sunday in Advent and Christmas is weeks away, so I’m going to get back to some somber thoughts and devotions about why I desperately need a Savior to prepare myself for the Great Feast of Christ’s Incarnation.

This from Job is currently on my mind:
quote:


If I wash myself with snow and cleanse my hands with lye,
yet you will plunge me into a pit, and my own clothes will abhor me.

For he is not a man, as I am, that I might answer him, that we should come to trial together.
There is no arbiter between us, who might lay his hand on us both.


Let him take his rod away from me, and let not dread of him terrify me.

Then I would speak without fear of him, for I am not so in myself.


That’s as clear a hope for a mediator who’s fully God and fully human as I can imagine. In one of the Bible’s oldest books.

I hesitate as well. After all, "Satan" and "Santa" are both spelled with the very same 5 letters!!

Truth be known, tax season in Bethlehem was not in December.

Christmas is not political. It’s the reason we have the holiday. Merry CHRISTMAS to you.
