I agree 100%...BUT...That doesn't give anyone the right to tell me that I should be against it.........As you say "People have a right to be against it", I say "I have a right to enjoy it"..They should extend me the same courtesy that I extend them...That's all I'm saying


If you don't like Halloween, stay home, do your own thing...But, DON'T say "I don't like Halloween, so I'm going to try to make my whole community stop participating in it"...That's just BULLSHIT

It's the same as saying "I don't like vanilla ice-cream so I'm going to form a group to make stores stop selling it"...Yes, it really IS that fucking selfish and stupid...

I mean nobody has a problem with the fact that people protest Christmas. You can't even put a nativity scene out or say Merry Christmas it has to be "Happy Holidays" instead but nobody says "If they don't like it they can ignore it

Yeah...I "have a problem" with THAT, too...Christmas should be whatever the hell a person wants it to be to them...It's nobody else's business...A nativity scene, or the word 'Christmas' isn't exactly going to cause anyone any grievious bodily harm or deep mental anguish :rolleyes:

Personally, I have seen that Christmas has become nothing more than an excuse to waste money, and a forced obligation to buy shit that no one really needs or wants, for people you don't even really like......It's a completely commercialized exercise in materialism

The 'Wonder And Joy' of Christmas actually starts in January, when the bills start coming in and you 'Wonder' how in the HELL you could have spent so much damned money, and how you're going to pay all those bills...The 'Joy' comes in July, when you have FINALLY paid for it all:rolleyes:

People just need to mind their own fucking business :mad:
