| Re: New Holiday Tradition
...Anyway, to get this thread back on topic, here is my two cents:
I respect peoples outlook, and what they believe in. If someone is Muslim, Catholic, Jewish, whatever, they have the right to believe what they want to believe in. So if someone doesn't believe in saying "Merry Christmas", so be it, they can say whatever they want. But when someone who believes in it and says it, I don't see how they have the right to say that the person who said "Merry Christmas" shouldn't say that and should say happy holidays. Isn't that kind of enforcing the persons religion upon the other person? I think so.
Obviously if someone was saying it to simply offend the other person, then it's wrong, but when people just say it to on another and some other person who doesn't believe in it says "I'm offended, please say it in another manor", then that kind of pisses me off, because the world is filled with so many different cultures and people, so who really has the right to tell another how to say what they believe in, ex; Merry Christmas. |
