It's not really a "war" and it's not really against Christmas, moreover it is an attitude against Christ and anything that has anything to do with Christ, be it Christmas or Christians.
Christians in this country have enjoyed freedom of religion and freedom from persecution for as long as we can remember.
This is the beginning of the end of that. Freedom of religion has devolved into some twisted politically correct forced love of secularism as a "religion". This includes the turning of our government to Islamic Shariah law, under the pretense of "political correctness" and "tolerance".
Tyranny knows no self restraint, however, and the "tolerance" will not stop at tolerating a godless religion, but instead will devolve into a forced embrace of a godless and barbaric socialist state.
Separation of church and state was a good thing. We will see it degrade into a forced affiliation with secularism and socialist beliefs.
If the "Progressive left" gets their way.
We have been silent too long. We became too complacent with our "spot" in church. Sitting there, got our ticket to Heaven, we have no care about those who are less fortunate. We belong to a specific church and take pride in that. Pride goeth before a fall, didn't we all read that?
Perhaps it is us... Christ...

Perhaps it is us... Christians who first began to lose Christ in Christmas and in our every day lives.
And Satan has been loosed upon the earth... and his followers are easy. Their own unhappiness lends itself to their need to blame someone or something for the sadness and emptiness of their souls. They are easily led. Their hatred makes them pliable.
The door has been opened for persecution of Christians and everything relating to Christ.
Get ready for persecution and strife because of your affiliation with a church. Get ready to be disrespected because you are a Christian. Get ready for your government to show disgust at your belief in Christ.
Fasten your seat belts, it's going to be a rocky ride.

I couldn't have said it better myself! and I've heard that it was going to come to this.
We have sat and said nothing for way too long!
Kinda like Elvis adding Star of David to tombstone just in case! We wouldn't want to offend anyone who lives in their own country's laws, customs, and languages. They might take out their fervor on demolition with general loss of everybody's life.
When did we allow television stations, retailers and manufacturers to dictate to us what holiday spirit actually is. When did we allow ourselves to be duped into turning a time of year which traditionally was about building and strengthening community and culture, into a competitive frenzy. Personally, I think we should take the holiday season back from the corporations.
Mature, secure believers (in whatever the propaganda they may push), don't try to bribe you with childish yearnings for unearned gifts or blackmail you into behaving in a prescribed manner to received so-called "unconditional love". Nope, just don't buy it.
This ACLU, does the American Tax Dollar pay for their service ? Call this a need to know.. Has anyone stop to think and see that there is a very good chance that The U.S.S. Court Ruling, from the start of no prayer in schools , by taking away the Freedom of Choice for a child to pray or not to Pray, that 10 second moment of silence, is in fact the freedom of choice protect by Law, but twisted and went unchallenged back in those days because of the lack of the voice of the Internet.
I can not show you God, but I can show you the face of evil within the International Boycott of the Arabic Drug Empire Phase 2.
This Matrix of the net has become the Voice Of The People under the Freedom Of Speech, and until all of you unite your voices as one, you will not be heard.
Why do I do 10x10 postings at a lot of different web site, in order to unite the voices ? To get the message out that because we have faith in what you write. So what needs to be called for is the disbandment of the ACLU for violating the Constitutional Rights Of The People. And by the way we may just save a grate deal of Tax Dollars.

I'm not going to say that I didn't look forward to getting the gifts when I was a young one. And I certainly do enjoy the appreciation that I receive by giving. I'm sure most of us did.
However, what is missing is the social aspect of the holidays: Being together with family at one level, and being together with your community, at another. (The Carols do say "good will to men" .. all of us.)
A historical case: In the days of WW-I, circa 1914, the war came to a standstill: http://www.biblicalrecorder.o...
Today, preparations (shopping) for Christmas culminates in an alarming state of social unrest, often exceeding "road rage" at it's worse. It's not uncommon to hear stories of assault, battery or even stampedes culminating in the deaths of shoppers participating in the rage.
Today's contemporary "Christmas" music coerces us towards more and more spending--on credit lines already maxed--to turn over last quarter revenue. Many hot items are put to market in scarce amounts, driving up prices, and instigating a veritable riot in the lines at the cash register ...

This is hardly "community spirit", it's hardly the Christian intent, and nothing to be proud of. I don't play this game.

If I'm reading you right... Good on you, brother!
Are you saying they love America a little less than everyone else?
If so, I think many of them would have words for you (to sum it up, they would say you're wrong).
Are you saying they don't have feelings (their hearts are unfeeling?)?
If so, then I think you need to take the time to pull your head out of the clouds and meet individuals from a few minority groups.
Are you saying that America doesn't love them?
If so, why are they so happy? I'm going to go out on a limb here and assume, based on the context of your comment, that this is not at ALL what you meant, even though you make it perfectly clear that you are none too fond of these non-heartfelt-for-'A'mericans (I will continue to capitalize that word, even if it doesn't mean enough to you for you to capitalize it yourself)
Is it so hard to accept that regardless of race, religion, social status, moral creed, sexual orientation, etc. that people who enjoy the comforts of America are just that- Americans, and not "Americans who don't love America", or "heartless Americans"?
I'd rather be a liberal that attempts to promote social justice than a conservative who does not mince words about bigotry towards minority groups such as Muslim Americans.
"YES"
Just look at many of the responses to your question, which is not an assault on the day that is celebrated but on the person who is celebrated, "CHRIST".
Christmas was around long befor our nation was ever born and the celebration of the one who was born over 2000 years ago has been honored ever since.
It is interesting to me that the birth of a child causes so much conflict, when in essence it should bring joy.
I'm not christian, and I know more about this holiday than most. Christmas was moved from March to December when CHRISTIANS invaded other lands and took over the solstice holidays to add to the numbers of converters. Islam and Christianity share the same God. Islam celebrates christmas as the birth of a prophet, and Bethlehem and Jerusalem are in the middle east. please quit being an allophobe, and learn about more cultures, as well as your own, before you bash. damn Troll.
P.S. I have no political affiliation
You have no clue what your talking about, and as for 'learning" about other cultures, I spent 7 years in the service of my country, and have been to 9 countries 4 continents. I've seen more of this world, than you've read about. The places I've been to have shown me, that there is no place on earth as wonderful as America, and it's Judeo - Christian founding ideals.
Try as you might, to explain away history, so you can replace it with your new world politically correct version, you are showing your stripes, and failing in your points. Columbas, the Pilgrim settlers, and the writers of our constitution, were rooted in Christianity.
P.S. I'm American, Concervative.
Just because something was used originally for a different purpose does not make it invalid.
Many of them were Deist, Quaker or Unitarian.
The definition of Christian is a follower of CHRIST
