Do you believe that Jesus Christ was born?....I doubt it was on Dec 25th but He was born. Most of the songs and stuff are wrong but the Luke has the real story of the first Christmas....check it out 🙂

Jesus was born, there is proof to that (why would the Romans talk about him if he didn't exist and he did their empire harm)
The bible isn't THAT correct, but it's very close and with a lot of symbolic in it

Christmas has become 'more than the some of its parts'. Whether you are Christian or not it is a good time to celebrate what it represents- goodwill and so on, at the end of the year.

Yeah..it's nice what it represents..and it's a good excuse to be a bit more cheery..that works for me. Hanakah and Christmas are both prominant here..so you don't have just one holiday shoved down your thought as much...that's a nice switch.

I went into Burgar King today, and the guy who served me said "Happy Holidays".
I then overheard him later say that he can't say "Merry Christmas", because it could offend different races. How rediculous is that?

Well you never know.....on the tv guide it says happy x mas or something like that.....People try hard not to offend others...but it doesn't work 🙂
Personally Merry Christmas is usu the normal phrase used around this time

Same here. But they do have to be careful, because lawyers will sue people for anything these days.
JUL

True, these days you can be sued for stepping on someone's foot or looking at them the wrong way.... gee we might hurt their feelings 🙄
TOM

I hate lawyers.

Do you know any personally?
I've been spared that pain and sorrow up to this point, but I have a friend who wants to be one.
TOM
ToMaccoMr. Orange
No, I don't know any. But I watch specails on 60 Minutes, and 48 Hours, and see that they try to get murderers and rapests back onto the streets.

Kinda makes one doubt the justice system....cops lock 'em away and lawyers set 'em free.

There was a case somewhere, where a woman was at McDonalds, drinking a cup of coffee. She spilled some on herself, then SUED McDonald's for the coffee being to hot. She won the case.
What the hell is that all about?
JUL

I've heard about the case, but I didn't know she won...that's a sickening thought.
McDonalds had nothing to do with that "stupid" woman spilling coffee on herself!.....I triped on a sidewalk about 4 years back....does that mean that I can sue the town?......
TOM
ToMaccoMr. Orange
Probably!
So, next time you go to McDonald's, go in the morning and get some coffee. There is a warning label on it: WARNING: HOT. It's rediculous.
JUL

Really, McDonald coffee is hot?!? really....gee and I was going to pore it over my feet to warm them...bad idea right 🙂
Since that lady hit up McDonalds...you think Burger King's still fair game for a lawsuit 😉 ????.....seriously....people go crazy when it comes to easy money.
