Two years ago, it was illegal to have christmas decorations up in any workplaces in case it offended people! They don't call advent calenders advent calanders anymore, they're seasonal chocolate calanders! It's insane. Really pisses me off, considering this is a Christian country, and they have no hangups about other faiths practising and celebrating their religion. I don't care either, it's great to have diversity. But they for some reason think if we don't get rid off everything we believe in and only have the others, we're offending them. It's one rule for us, and another for them. I don't blame the people who have these other faiths or nationalities. It's the idiots in the government.

It's just like that in America. It's awful.
You have the term African-American instead of Black, but White people are still called White. Either have it Black and white or call White people European-Americans. It's this double-standard that irritates me.
We are also not allowed to say Christmas or anything like that anymore either. Christian Christmas symbols are obviously out, but Santa is now deemed inappropriate as well. All you're allowed to say is "Holiday" with winter imagery like holly and snow.
Damn liberals. :cool:
