I think that it’s absolutely idiotic that the media and people are afraid to say Merry Christmas… oh no, we might offend someone.

Oh no! But yet every day on the television people use the name of Christ in a constant derogatory manner. It’s okay to mock the Jesus of the Christian faith, but if you wish someone a time honored blessing, you are  suddenly politically incorrect and rude?

I think political correctness has become a disease that has watered down textbooks and history, and thinking people of the world. ( MSN did a report here )

I mean when did Christmas become a bad thing?

Now we are told to say “HAPPY HOLIDAYS” so we don’t offend this or that group?

Why have Americans become such pansies?

Wake up America, your country and freedoms are being subterfuged right out from under you.

I think it’s interesting to note that freedom of speech in America is going the way of dinosaur. Nice idea, sounds good on paper, but sadly the media, the government and your mom all control the proverbial “paper”.

Are the thought police next? I mean seriously, does anyone have a brain anymore? Can people not speak out?

New hate crimes laws are opening ways to make it a CRIME for people to have viewpoints contrary to the ruling masses on topics like homosexuality, religions. Even now there are groups lobbying to make it illegal to say controversial phrases like: “Jesus is the only way to heaven.”  or “The Bible teaches that homosexuality is a sin.”

If you are uncomfortable with statements like that, then shouldn’t YOU have the right to speak for or against such things without WORRYING ABOUT GOING TO JAIL? That’s what freedom of speech is, you shouldn’t get sent to jail for talking about serious topics, you should have  A DISCUSSION!

Pastors all over America are being targeted, threatened for this type of thing. Why have a faith, if you can’t even have religious freedom to pray and speak about the things that matter to you?

What happened to free thought, free speech, the ability to grow from and be challenged by ideas?

A few years back a cartoonist drew a cartoon depicting Muhammad as being a warlord, and what happened?

Riots by the followers of that faith… hmm, wait a minute so when someone mocks a Muslim character, riots occur and people burn down embassies, but if people mock Jesus (seen every day on television and media) Sure people are offended but usually christians peacefully seek change, change the channel etc, and THE CHRISTIANS ARE THE ONES LABELED as radicals, and “hatemongers”.

How strange is this?

For example, in the name of “Art” people have been given tens of thousands of dollars in government grant money to produce such works of art depicting  “Jesus” and other Biblical figures made of fecies, and in lewd sexual acts… etc. If our own government has seen to it that these things are okay to FUND, why is it so bad to wish people Merry Christmas, or to talk about our views on various faiths etc, and or Jesus with people…???

People are so scared to be made uncomfortable with someone’s ideas they make laws to protect themselves from any thought that challenges their way of being.

I think it’s obscene to create things like that, and we should extend a hand of peace, not a sword of wrath.

I wouldn’t want people’s freedom of speech stifled because I find it offensive. People have the right to be heard at least.

I am glad I can speak out and peacefully share my thoughts and ideas,  I think that is what gives us our freedom as citizens of the US. I want the right to speak against things I perceive as wrong and the right to hear out what others who don’t share my opinions think.

But don’t make it a one sided battle, that’s what happened in Nazi Germany…

I think we should try to create positive change, not hatred.

In England it’s already started… A recent case in Liverpool Christian hotel owners were in trouble with the law because they shared their views with a muslim woman. I think that if she was offended by their statements she should have just left. They didn’t chase her around with a stick and try to convert her, they were having a conversation with her from what I gathered… the case was dismissed but the couple is probably going to lose their hotel…

Do you want your freedom of speech taken away America? WAKE UP! So in closing this rant I say:

MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ALL AND TO ALL A GOOD NIGHT!

Don't say the CH-Word! :) OH NO!, 10.0 out of 10 based on 2 ratings
