I'm not certain about the UK, but in the US we do not have an official religion .. we are FREE. Free to worship as we choose or to not worship at all. Free to celebrate Hannukah or Kwanza or the Solstice or maybe even Christmas. We are even free to be so arrogant in our practice of faith that we can try to jam it down people's throats."Wake Up" USA and UK we are losing our countries

Sorry, but I am gonna respond to this. I am not even that religious of a guy, but Christmas is Christmas. Santa is Santa, and he goes HO HO HO. Now soccerdad, I will repeat this: If you do not like what the MAJORITY of us here do in the good old USA, you are FREE to leave.....Soccerdad wrote:I'm not certain about the UK, but in the US we do not have an official religion .. we are FREE.

OK Dubble, I will leave the country I was born in because someone who has the right - granted by the Constitution - to say whatever they want to say .. whether it is Merry Christmas, Happy Hannukah, or Have A Nice Holiday has had the audacity to say it. You choose to say Merry Christmas. I support you 100% But if Crate and Barrel (or anyone else) chooses to say Happy Holiday, they are just as solid in their right and freedom to do so. That, my friend, is what this country is all about. Freedom. You are even free to insult other religions and anyone that you consider to be a jackleg. But you might want to do a Dubble check on the Constitution before you declare that the good old US of A endorses either Christmas or Santa.Now soccerdad, I will repeat this: If you do not like what the MAJORITY of us here do in the good old USA, you are FREE to leave.....
