Isn't it amazing that "the phrase" of Christmas, "Peace on Earth and Good Will Towards Men," is a concept so despised by the righties? Isn't it a shame that the word "Christmas" is so despised by the lefties? -- John H MERRY CHRISTMAS! Wishing you the best as we celebrate the birth of our Lord, Jesus Christ. |

The true shame belongs to those who insist in reveling in their ridiculous
left or right worlds, as if it provided some form of refuge. How constictive and stifling it must be. |

Your entire life here seems to consist of posting one straw man fallacy after another. I know lots of "lefties." I don't know any who "despise" the word Christmas. Some of us lefties, though, dislike the involvement of the government in furthering a religion, *any* religion. As I have oft posted: this is America; keep your stinking religion out of my state. What you do in your home or in your church or in your church-related schools is the business of you and your co-religionists, but please don't try to shovel those activities or beliefs onto the rest of us through governmental action. And, by the way, for any rightie to profess belief in the teachings of Jesus is the height of hypocrisy. Fits you like a glove, eh? Is my 'stinking religion' the same one responsible for the solemn high mass you're attending Christmas day? Apparently you've not been watching the news lately. Don't you know that use of the word "Christmas" is no longer the politically correct thing to do? Harry, Harry, I thought your mood was improving. Yet you seem to get riled over nothing. Calm down, say a prayer, and things will get better. -- John H MERRY CHRISTMAS! Wishing you the best on the Holy Day as we celebrate the birth of our Lord, Jesus Christ. |

I doubt if it is Catholic, though. You're too much the war-monger for that. Apparently you've not been watching the news lately. Don't you know that use of the word "Christmas" is no longer the politically correct thing to do? I hadn't noticed. Most everyone I know refers to the day as Christmas Day. No, Harry, we *both* share the same "stinking" (in your words) religion! Isn't that great! So next time you're calling people vile names, spewing your invectives, or telling lies about someone, keep your Catholic upbringing in mind. -- John H MERRY CHRISTMAS!

So next time you're calling people vile names, spewing your invectives, or telling lies about someone, keep your Catholic upbringing in mind. Well, there's the problem, and it is so typical of you righties: you draw conclusions without having significant facts. You think because I am attending a mass at a Catholic church I am Roman Catholic. Your thinking is wrong. I am indeed attending a mass at a Catholic church, but... I am not a Roman Catholic. Never was. What a shame. Here I thought we shared something meaningful. Well, whatever you are, next time you're calling people vile names, spewing your invectives, or telling lies about someone, keep your [insert sect] upbringing in mind. -- John H MERRY CHRISTMAS!

Did you see where Jerry Falwell is threatening to file suit against companies or oganizations who sponsor "holiday" parties?
