"I'll get off my soap box, If you get of your dirty box!"

Merry Christmas - If that Offends You, Get a Life

Visit Rosetteismyname's Blog | 1 year ago
So, recently I recalled a letter written on an attorney billboard on a previous Christmas season. It said, "Merry Christmas - If that Offends You, Get a Life." I didn't understand the profound effect it would have on me about 3 years later. Recently people are offended by public displayed Christmas trees. They aren't holiday trees. The University of Carolina banned all Christmas trees this season from its libraries on campus; why? People are offended! If I saw a minora on campus, would I be offended, would I care? When I see the Jewish star, do I care? No, I don't. I don't celebrate HOLIDAY...the only people that would celebrate holiday are same that celebrate giftmas, who could also be the same that don't have a God. "If I saw Happy Kwanza on someone's door; I'd say, great that person's celbrating Kwanza. Who's offended by a Christmas tree? What do we get rid of next? Do we take Santa out of the mall because people are offended by him? Do we stop showing rudolf the red-nose reindeer on tv? I thought in this country we were supposed to be tolerant of other people's beliefs. We're supposed to be tolerant of other people's religions. When are people going to be tolerant of our beliefs? When are people going to be tolerant of our religion? You people offended by Christmas, are you going to be working this December 25th? NO! You're going to wake-up late. You're going to have a big breakfast and hang around your pajamas all day, drinking on egg nog and sucking on candy canes. You're not going to be offended by Christmas then - So why are you offended by Christmas now? I'm sick of it" Bob Well, you know, I'm sick of it too. Merry Christmas! Merry Christmas! Merry Christmas! It's America and others should be tolerant of my beliefs as I am supposed to be of theirs. Am I offended by atheists? Yeah. Do I go on a public protest at city hall? NO.Media sits on this idea of "reporting to you live. It is the 23rd and only 2 more days to shop until HOLIDAY." (Yeah, I shop for holiday)-[sarcasm] So, Merry Christmas - If that Offends You, Get a Life Happy Kwanza, Happy Hannukah, Happy Giftmas And Merry Christmas....If that Offends You, Get a Life

Tags: Merry Christmas, Happy Kwanza, Happy Hannukah, holiday

So, I told my sister about this, she got a kick out of it and started laughing...She said that next year on all of her Christmas cards she would put, "Merry Christmas, if that offends you, get a life" I was so proud

Hey only anal retentives that point it out to you are offended by a missed spelled point. What about … Show full comment

yeah, they don't have spell check, you have to copy and paste it over. I was too impatient for that being that I had just left CVS who was talking about offending people by saying Merry Christmas. I left a lot out on this blog like. I am offended by people that say Happy Holiday. Saying Happy Holiday, leaves me out as a Christmas celebrator..

you are so funny...send a letter to the ACLU to get on their mailing list...good point...make em waste a ton of money, also don't forget to send back those reply cards to make sure they pay for it.

Thanks for complimenting the writing here, in which I was rather lazy...

Hey only anal retentives that point it out to you are offended by a missed spelled point. What about a spell check on this site? Now here's the deal, the ACLU is behind all this, send them a Merry Christmas Card as I did years ago, you are on their mailing list for life on their dime, you get information from them on what they are up to, if enough people did it they would go broke. Great essay, you are a beautiful writer Rose. Stop by my site I've got some real gut blasters running now, and leave a comment or two. Karl

It is almost as if people have run out of things to do.

Our economy is crumbling, our infra structure is crumbling, home ownership numbers are crumbling, and so I spend time protesting a tree at a mall?

Good points and good post.
