Merry X-mas?

Post by Gman »

What's up with this marry x-mas stuff anyway? Why take the "Christ" out of Christmas? What is wrong with people these days? Wouldn't want to offend people I guess.. :shakehead:

Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable, if anything is excellent or praiseworthy, think about such things. -Philippians 4:8

It's so dilute now.

I watch some of the kids shows with my nieces and nephews and it's amazing how unrecognizable the "Christmas" stuff is, especially on Nickolodeon. According to Spongebob and his new Christmas season song...."Don't be a jerk" that's all the season is about!

Gee, never thought of that before!! :roll: (anyone remember "can't we all just get along?")

the world seeks peace and refuses to see where to find it ....

Yet in their attempt to not offend people they offend us. Saying merry x-mas is offinsive to me, not that they care.
Once I was trapped in a perpetual night, without even a star to light the sky. Now I stand in the glory of the Son, and not even a faint shadow of darkness remains.
