Exactly my point, and the implication of the last paragraph in my OP. Get over it, celebrate Christmas however you please, and let others do as they please. Get off your horse over it.
And if you really want to get down to it...umm, yeah, Christmas is sooo threatened. All this Holiday stuff is just making it impossible to celebrate Christmas.
. STFU. Christmas starts in October now, thanks to "Happy Holidays." Hannukah is turning into (has turned into?) Jew-Christmas. There's MORE Christmas than ever, no matter what word you put on it.
Now, I don't blame anyone for that, or suspect some evil conspiracy. The more I examine it, the more I realize that it's just a consequence of the religion. It's why Christmas as we know it is actually an amalgum of every culture Christianity has run across. And it may very well lead to the eventual demise of distinguishable cultures. Not something I look forward too. However, I'm not angry about it. I don't feel that I can support it, so I do what I can to continue my personal cultural heritage, but to be up in arms about it, and calling for "horror" is irresponsible and ridiculous.
