Honestly, don't you get tired of all this "Fuck you I don't care if your offended" business? 99% of the members that frequent this section of the forum agree with you already.

There's no debate here. You lay out a blanket "Fuck" you, and the place rallies around your battle cry like you actually accomplished something. The only individual that REALLY takes you to task is Coool. Personally? I don't care what your opinions are. You're entitled to them.

I stand by my original thought. Christmas is a religious holiday. I was born and raised Roman Catholic, and very idea of "Fuck you Merry Christmas" is ridiculous.

Peace out.

Wow, you actually took a stand on something and didn't decorate it with smileys, I am impressed.

Taurus, I've taken a stand on plenty of things here. Problem is, some folks are incapable understanding holding some liberal views, yet still being generally conservative.

People only hear and see what they want to hear and see.

You take very few stands, you just stir the pot and look for buttons to push. That's OK, if that is the way you choose to interact that's your choice. I'm sure you're a decent guy, but most of your posts are antagonistic to a point.

So in summary...

You say that people are incapable of understanding your views, yet 75% of what you post is generalized bashing of conservatives. The other 25% is personally attacking and being condescending to anyone who you disagree with.

You say that you are sick of my comments based on the basis that there is no "debate", yet I can't think of a single instance where you have actually managed to discuss a topic or disagree with someone without immediately resorting to insults and condescending bullshit. Right, sport?

You say... and I quote:
Quote:
Personally? I don't care what your opinions are.
Yet this entire thread has been spent with you being somehow offended and butt hurt that I don't give a shit about YOUR opinion.

You constantly come charging in to the rescue of those being wronged like an elementary school hall monitor if you feel that someone has insulted coool, yet you say nothing when he goes off of his meds and says that those who disagree with him are "whiny ass bitch losers". To top it off, you also have no problem throwing insults yourself. Funny how that works.

You say that the only thing that I post are generalized "IDGAF" comments, yet any time I make a post that is on topic, not offensive, not argumentative, and not attacking you say that my opinion doesn't count because I'm... too young? (The combined stupidity, arrogance, and ignorance of that one still makes me laugh)

If someone says something even remotely insulting to you, you get your panties all bunched up and offended yet oddly enough, as shown in this thread, you have no problem posting generalized condescending and derogatory remarks towards others.


Did I miss anything?


Your constant hypocritical, "this offends me" holier than thou posts have gotten long in tooth. It's a very simple concept. Is that all you got, sport?

Christmas was taken by the Catholics and made into a religious holiday but it didn't start that way and it was never in the bible.

Fair enough. I'm Catholic and Christmas still means something to me on a religious level.

It does to a lot of people. I even know some Jews that love the holiday.

Fred Phelps is the closest but he is also acting no different than the tolerant, vocal atheists and muslims.

Well for all the Xmas haters, I just got back from a wonderful Christmas program with the Mormon Tabernacle Choir with several guest appearances and all kinds of holiday songs and dances but the most touching was Tom Brokaw. He related the story of Capt. Halvorsen who started dropping candy bars to the children below during the Berlin Airlift and how it created the perception that Americans did care about those that suffered. The story was told so beautifully and the backdrop was a large silk drapery on which they documented the story with classic footage. When Tom was done and the music rose to its climax, the 100' tall drapery dropped to reveal Capt. Gail Halvorsen in person, it was incredible. The message was that from small acts come large things. It was a fantastic evening.

So anyone out there that chooses to hate the holidays and what they mean to Christians, you can't take away the feeling I get, sorry. Also, I don't really care how offended you are by the holidays, just ignore them and go on with your lives.
