HAPPY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE!

HAPPY CHRISTMAS AND A MERRY NEW YEAR!

...Peace on Earth and Good Will To Men! :innocent:

:blush: :D

P.S. - Drink as much eggnog as you can! It will not be here much longer! :) :D

Haha, except our Chrsitmas (Down here in aus, see?) was yesterday.

Yeah. We believe he came around April. I don't know how it ended up the Christmas was in December...lol. A little bit off, but that is ok. As long as it is celebrated.

Same thing with days of the week.

Happy New Years!

Sorry to all Christians who are ignorant of this fact (actually I'm not I'm just saying I am to prevent discussion later) but "Christmas" is in fact celebrated when it is because of its roots as a pagan festival celebrated in honour of astrological phenomena.

So happy equinox instead.

Lol...Regardless Christ + Mas (Birth) = Christmas (Christ's Birth)

That's what it's all about. Doesn't matter too much how it started...lol...then again...maybe it does. haha :whistling:

who care's WHEN we celebrate it? It's WHY we're celebrating it that matters.

Amen. lol :)

Exactly! Everybody loves an over-commercialized excuse for presents!

Ah...as much as that might have been a joke...Christmas is not about gifts.

]\/[4 I'm guessing you're not a Christian...

Alright...let's be nice now. (Not that you are really trying to sound mean.)

Christmas is not about gifts.

Riiight...of course not :)

]\/[4 I'm guessing you're not a Christian...

Good guess, with powers of deduction like that it's no wonder you deduced that Christmas isn't about gifts; brilliant :P .

wow....you're a special one...

it's quite alright I am a bit slow.

Well at least we're past denial...

As for the rest, I'd refer you to a wonderful post by humnab below:

Wow people! This has totally turned into something it should not have. All I wanted to do was to say Merry Christmas! lol

Peace....let's have peace. :cool:

God, I absolutely DESPISE this kind of ignorance.

Why are you lumping Catholics in with anti-Christians? Catholics ARE Christians. Not only that, but they're the ORIGINAL Christians. If anyone tells you otherwise, they're either lying to you to further their own agenda, or they're ignorant of historical fact...and a LOT of so-called Christians lie like that. For centuries people who wanted to be Christian in their own way and not in the original, Catholic way have been trying to deny that Catholics are Christians because they find them a threat. At one time (500 years ago) they may indeed have been a threat, but not now.

Get your facts straight before you start hurling hateful rhetoric around.

May I request for this forum to be closed and deleted? It's getting a little out of hand.

That wasn't clear to me at all. And I'm glad you know so much about him that you can set all that straight.

OK, since I'm a moderator - much good may it do me - I'll close the topic.

The behaviour in this thread was ridiculous. ]\/[4, please kindly show some tolerance. All piano_player18 was doing was wishing everyone a happy Christmas, he was not initiating a debate on religion. Your instigating was unnecessary. If you want to discuss religion, take it to the Off Topic forum, or if it's going to get like this, the Free For All forum. Thank you.
