People who dislike Christmas

should be shot!

 

I'll hand you the gun

 

i just dislike the rampant consumerism. and the dogmatic religions. otherwise i love the season of giving.

 

your gonna have to shoot me! im a christmas hating foo

 

Hate is such a strong word. I dislike the lies, the theft and the deceit.

 

Christmas is what you make it. If you want to see it as a blatant consumer driven rip-off, then you have no heart.

It is a time for kids. How can you dislike a day that brings smiles to so many childrens' faces? There is magic in the air at this time of year.

 

Hating is such a strong word.

I hate.

 

thats one of the very few reasons i deal with christmas. i love seeing my child watching the lights, and opening his presents.

 

I like the holidays cause it gives me a reason to eat more...

 

Because Christmas is a lie. It was stolen from the Roman Pagans by Constantine I and the Council of Nicea. Christ was born in JULY. December 25th was Mithras, a holiday to honor the Roman god Mithra before the 4th century. It's all fact, look it up.

And 1600 years of lies doesn't make it a valid holiday just because it makes a bunch of brats smile.

Silly Christians...

 

What is a valid holiday anyways? If a lie can bring people together and give them a reason to celebrate, then we should make up more of these. I enjoy them.

 

i have no strong feelings for it one way or the other. it's just a day. hell, i don't even hate valentine's day, and i consider christmas to be much more innocuous than that.

 

Bringing people together usually ends up in disaster.

I can give you a million examples.

 

I know and don't actually care about the origins of the holiday. If you want to be cynical, most Holidays are for ridiculous or often offensive reasons(Thanksgiving for example).

 

i like the way you think...

hey baby, we were actually married in a past life. lets get together and celebrate with this bottle of wine and this box of condoms. :cheers2:

 

i love this thread
i love love love christmas!

 

You dont need to give me examples, I know. I guess it depends the people who we have around. I have nothing but nice memories from Christmas, so Im biased

 

LOL

 

Thanksgiving was my immediate thought after I read his post.

 

It feels like a cheap excuse to get together with your family. Families that are truly close shouldn't need such excuses.
