I have a different opinion

Quote From: basiah1

    I am disappointed that you called it a "holiday show".  I will no longer go to stores that do not play Xmas carols, not ever again.  I am just sick to death of placating the liberals who are so afraid they might offend 1 athiest on this CHRISTIAN Holiday.  This country was founded on Christianity, if they don't like it, too bad.  People say that believe and then whimp out when it comes to standing up for it. 

   I really thought you were different Dr Phil but my opionion is been changing lately. 

   

I understand that many people are upsett about things being called holiday instead of Christmas.  I too am a christian and understand that this is frustrating.  However, in the grand scheme of things I think there are things more important than worrying about whether something is called a holiday or Christmas.  Many people understand the origions of this holiday and that is fine.  I don't think Jesus is going to have a fit if some people use the expression holiday show instead of Christmas.  If many Christians continue to nit pick on every little thing that they think is wrong, it is going to land them in a place where no one will listen to them.  There are other issues more important to focus on such as abortion and making sure people can retain their religious freedom not matter what or who they worship.  I very much love God but in today's day and age many folks are just getting to many irons in the fire and therefore no cause is being furtherd.  I am sorry that this issue so upsetts you, but perhapes you should reevalute why.  I don't think it is a big deal considering that there are many more hard things going on in the world.

If you're so disappointed in  the use of the word holiday instead of Christmas and you want to keep Christ as part of the holiday, then quit spelling it XMAS.

 I think the reason they call it a holiday show is because not everyone in the world is a Christian.  Some people celebrate different holidays.  Besides Everyone with this complaint is missing the whole thing entirely.  IT WAS FOR THE CHILDREN OF THE KATRINA HURRICANE FAMILIES!!!!  It isn't about being mad because Dr. Phil said Holidays show instead of Christmas show.  I wish people would just be thankful that there are people out there who can help these kids who didn't ask for their total life to be completely wiped out. Maybe you and anybody else who feel this way should just be thankful.  PS I am a Christian too. I practice the live and let live, I let other people believe in what they would like not what i want them to believe in.
