The Atheists need to crawl back under their rock they slithered out of!
Why should I have to go into hiding to placate you? Is that fact that you are a christian and I'm not somehow make your opinion superior to mine? I think not.
80% of the world is Christian
News flash asshat, 80% of America is one denomination of christian or another, but america is most certainly not the world. The most densely populated countries on the planet are non christian by a large majority, hell christians don't even make up 50% of worldwide religious adherents.
so why should be bend-over backwards to please the 20% that aren't?
Bullshit statistics aside, Why should atheists have to bendover backwards to please you? Why should I have silence myself to make you feel like you're somehow better than me because you belong to a religion and I don't? What makes my opinion any less valid than your own?
They can just keep their TRAPS SHUT.
As long as I have the freedom to speak my mind I will continue to do so, and there's not a damn thing you can do about it. I hear people like you talk all about freedom of religion, but what you mean is only if it's your religion. The same thing that protects your freedom to have and voice your religious beliefs protects my freedom to not have any religion and to speak my mind about it.
Do we bit** and moan when Muslims celebrate Ramadan, or blacks celebrate Kwanza? NO
YES you do, constantly. Going on and on about how "it's a christian nation and how dare these uppity blacks and terrorist loving muslims be allowed to have their own recognized holidays.". You know just as well as I do that if you had your way you would force a cross wrapped with an american flag on every single citizen.
Let us have our CHRISTMAS TREE without them complaining!
Let us have our sign without complaining.
This is the season to celebrate the birth of Jesus
For christians maybe, but the are plenty of other religion that have their own holiday for their own reasons at this time of the year. The december holiday season is not the exclusive province of christians. Once you realize that you'll be better off for it.
so if they are atheist they don't need to have a sign since they have no religion!
One does not need to have a religion to a reason to celebrate, neither does one need to have a religion to express one's views. What you are claiming is that you, and only you should be allowed to have your celebration and it's accompanying acoutrements. And for that matter your precious christmas tree isn't even a christian tradition, it was incorporated from european pagan religions.
