Holiday controversy - Omigosh, don't say the C. word! You'll offend someone.

Indeed, people talk openly about Hannukah and Kwaanza. But we are not allowed to say the C. word. How retarded is that? We Christians are being oppressed as if it were the 1600s or something. We might offend someone. What about us being offended? I received the following poem in my e-mail. This poem by Sharon Steege is pretty much straight to the point. MERRY CHRISTMAS, PEOPLE!!!!! This reflects what a lot of Christians are feeling. MY CHRISTMAS Poem by Sharon Steege I don’t know who they are Saying I can’t greet the crowd The way that I want to Can’t say CHRISTMAS out loud. I walk into a business place See things that I rather not see But dare I not say CHRISTMAS And ask for a “holiday” tree. What happened to freedom of speech And living in the land of the free How can they take my CHRISTMAS money But can’t say MERRY CHRISTMAS to me. Men and women have given their lives So we could still go free I wonder how they would feel At saying “HOLIDAY” TREE. Come on AMERICA let’s wake up Don’t let our freedom escape If they get by with doing this What else will they take. This is starting to get out of hand, And I’ve begun to keep track Well I’ve just about had enough I’M TAKING CHRISTMAS BACK. So MERRY CHRISTMAS AMERICA I hope this gets all over the net If we all stand united and take freedom back ‘Twill be our best CHRISTMAS YET! MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYBODY!
