seems that some are afraid to say Christmas
You are right Dave, and it is shameful. I’m not one of them. In fact, last weekend we had a loud, bright and very happy float in the Christmas parade. (We won first place in “Best music”!) You would have liked the parade in Titusville: it was all about Christmas, and there wasn’t a happy holidays to be seen or heard!
So here goes: Merry Christmas everybody! I wish you a happy and prosperous 2013.
Merry Xmas!

What the hell is wrong with you people?
Why does the abbreviation of a written word mean so much and cause such a threat to your personal relationship with your Lord and your own religious convictions?
Is it because of a self-imposed “doubt of faith” that makes you want to shame other people for not professing their thoughts and feelings about THEIR relationship with God and THEIR interpretation of Christ and the meaning of Christmas?
Is that the real message of Christmas to you?
“Say it like I do or don’t say it at all” seems to be your message to me. I don’t think I ever met anybody who whined because Phillipians or Ecclesiastes was shortened up a bit.
Why on God’s green earth is using an X such a big deal? Does it not also mean “cross”? BTW, what was that thing they nailed Jesus to called? And speaking of ways to interpret what “X” means…could it not looked at like saying “criss-cross…like Christ (on the) cross”?..
So, just like the Bible, there are many different interpretations that we could argue about for hours, days, months, centuries…get my drift?
So.
I say “Get thee off thine high, flippin’ horse.”
Enjoy the season. Praise the Lord.
Just sweep your own house before bitching about the dirt in someone elses living room.
Sweat the big stuff and leave the small things for smaller minded people.
Unless you fall into that latter category, I suppose.
Then knock yourself out, man.
Happy Holidays and a Joyous Noel, people.
And Merry Christmas, too.

My name is Dave O’Steen I saw YOU bully Carol Wicks 2 Cristmas’s Ago I am 72 years old . I have introduced my self as MISTER SON OF A BIt6H .Now that you know my Faults let me tell you yours. You think you control my life .UP yours . You are a piece of s#it son of a bitch Any Time…
Bite me
I think the rest of that particular Xmas carol goes: Fa la la la la la…la la la la. So your an old man. I’m 49. When did age become a factor here? And what does Carol have to do with this, either? Other than you obviously ride the same train of thought to arrive at your wildly, hypocritical conclusions. Thanks for showing me the TRUE meaning of Christmas for you. It’s your way or rot in hell, I guess. So given your advanced age, Dave…save me a seat, will you? My $@%#ing name is Matt Thornton. And whatever you meant by anytime…I’m sure you didn’t mean you wanted to fight, right? Cuz it would be a real bitch to spend your holidays on a broken hip.
so where do you work don't wory about the hip hot shot
Gee whiz Osmo, you are asking a lot of questions. Are you sure you want to discuss religion on here? I actually don’t, but I’ll give you lots of time on FB or on the phone.
I just thought it would be nice to return a friendly greeting today.
I’ll make it easy for you.
Just let me know when visiting hours are at the home and I’ll stop by.
Unless it’s nap time or something.
Then I’ll just play checkers for a while til it’s activity time.
So.
Do you want to keep going like this, Dave, or concede the fact that you should have just let the man wish people a wonderful x-mas…or a happy holiday…or Happy Hanukah Chanukah or Kwanzaa or any other nicely phrased sentiment that they wanted without being called afraid…or shameful…in denial of their Lord…or even a piece of shit, SON OF A BITCH?
But if you DO wanna keep going…I’ll go grab some jerky and a six pack and we can rock and roll all night.
Cuz around here…I don’t have an enforced bedtime.
Me? Argue religion on a racing forum?
Sorry Bone, but returning a friendly greeting would have been,
“Merry Christmas right back atcha, my friend!”
Not referring to their abbreviation of same friendly greeting as “shameful” and “one of them”…
And while I could debate religion and the commercialized capitalization of it’s connection to Dec. 25th for pages and pages…I’d just as soon not.
I’ll save that for some other message board.
But then…I’m not the one that dissed the man’s xmas greetings, am I?
Wait…
What just happened here…did we just disagree about something without cursing and threatening each other physically? Are we doing something wrong? Cuz, that’s not how it usually goes on a faceless forum message board.
I guess in every CHRISTMAS card I wright I"m wronge then for 53 yrs to wish every one a Merry X-mas… Also on our late model we should change the number from 13 since in is for one cross and three nails… Hope no one every uses LOL, LOF, orROFLTD you might think the devil is after you. So next time I will get longer winded… and not abb. any more Sorry to all I might have affended and have a good night
Chip, sorry I over-reacted. Was having a stressful day, but that is no excuse. I do get defensive when Christmas gets attacked, and when I said “its shameful”, I was referring to vandals, and anyone who is slanderous or litigious, but not to you.
Osmo, you are still getting crashed next time I get near you. Eh, maybe not… Merry Christmas back atcha bud.
Although X-mas does not mean the taking of Christ out of Christmas, it is offensive to some christians. Out of respect to those that find it offensive, it’s best to write or say Christmas.
Maybe OJ needs an exorcism kit for Christmas. :teufel021:
I enjoyed learning where the X comes from … I was taught that as a young boy in the 60’s yet never knew the meaning of the X… It was always just an abb.

Happy Holidays…IE Christmas, Hanukkah, Kwanza, Boxing Day, New Years, Etc. Etc. Etc. Get off the Soap Box and enjoy the time whatever it may be. How about a little Twismas? Ladies and Gentlmen…Mr. Conway Twitty…
Well Robin,
I often say Happy Holidays so my Jewish, Jehovah Witnesses, non-Christian, or atheist friends are not left out. The holidays also include New Years and a few other celebrations. On Christmas day, I’ll say Merry Christmas. The people of Gotham should not get upset when people choose to use a different version of a holiday greeting than they use. Those of us that use something other than “Merry Christmas” are trying to include everyone in the holiday spirit. Why is it “Christians” are trying to exclude others from celebrating? Remember the Christmas date was chosen to replace a pagan holiday and it isn’t the actual date of the birth of Christ.
Happy Holidays,
Batman
