lol speaking of stupid politically correctness.

A school in somerset here in England has banned the sending of christmas cards so not to offend other religious groups, and also becuase they are a waste of environmental resources

jobcentre plus offices also here in England have banned christmas decorations in most of their offices for fear of offending aspects of the community, and also as a danger to staff????? Shocked

and like mase says, there is a metric ton of other xms related fun that has been banned at fear of offeding other races or religions.....

now I am not in the slightest racist, I have many friends from other religions and races.... but my point here is

WHAT THE F**K IS GOING ON IN THIS CRAZY WORLD WHEN YOU CAN'T SEND A CARD TO SOMEONE ELSE???

ok rant over

time to burn the xmas tree at fear of being arrested Rolling Eyes

Here in the States...in my remote part of it...there are some groups who want to change public "Christmas Trees" into "Holiday Trees"...lose the Nativity scenes...almost make everything...generic! Not that I'm a terribly religous person (Buddhism appeals to me more and more!) but...aren't people forgetting why Christmas is observed?

To put it another way...would you change Ramadan into "The 40 Day Food Strike" fearing it would somehow "offend" a particular group?

The whole "Christmas Season" is WAAAY out of balance, if you ask me...more a commercial racket than anything else anymore...I mean, my birthday is in August...This year, 2 FULL WEEKS BEFORE my birthday there were Halloween items to be purchased...AND Christmas decorations...IN F*****G AUGUST!
