Love can keep us together (only if it's Jesus love)

What amazes me is how the "christians" can read the preachings of a man who counseled love in everything we do, and yet use it to spread so much hate and controversy. Liberty Counsel (the name an indication of heavy irony in itself) has begun it's annual hate campaign, during what is supposed to be a holiday of showing love to your fellow man. Did I call it a hate campaign? Oh yes I did.

And why not? They are acting like 4 year olds who aren't getting their way on the playground. From one of their sample ads "In essence, we will be a “Friend” to those entities which allow for the constitutionally protected right of expression but will be a “Foe” of those which attempt to
suppress religious liberty." In other words, if you don't play my way, I won't be your friend no more. Not to mention they're liars based on that statement alone.

Again, no one is "stealing" Christmas. (Don't even get me into where you stole it from to start with guys). No one is looking to rename it or remove it altogether (not like you did the original pagan celebrations). In fact, we all just celebrate in our own way...but you can't stand that can you? Let me explain this so your small minds can comprehend:

1. Happy Holidays is a saying that includes ALL holidays of the season. Yes, yours too. It's not taking away YOUR right to say Merry Christmas. If it helps, look on it as a way to remember Jesus and love your fellow man, regardless of his religious affiliation. "You're a different religion, but I wish for you to be happy at this time of year anyhow. I wish to show that I love you, as Jesus taught, because Christianity rocks that way." The funny thing is this is supposedly Jesus' birthday. Would you dream of attending a real person's birthday party and being rude to everyone who showed up? Yet you do it on Jesus' birthday..what an asshole.

2. Including OTHER holidays that are celebrated at the exact same time is not because we don't like YOU. It's because we like to make our fellow man happy and comfortable. I don't know if you noticed, but this is America. We are diverse. That means we have lots of different people. We have white folks, black folks, brown folks, "Christian" folks, Jewish folks, Pagan folks...take my word, many different people. All these people have the right to be recognized for ALL that they are, which includes their religion. They should all feel comfortable to be in our country (especially since most were BORN here) and live their lives as they wish without harming others. I'm sorry, but your campaign to emphasize your religion over others harms others. You show your children, every Christmas, that it's more important who you worship than being a good person. Those kids go out and do the same thing to the other kids in their class. What a shining example of the love Jesus preached.

a. When schools decide not to sing "Christian" songs during the play, that doesn't mean they are out to crucify "Christians" after the play. It means that thanks to your psychotic meanderings they are trying really hard to follow the Constitution AND not cause a scene that ruins the holiday because you guys are real assholes. See, to show a welcome to all religions then that means they gotta sing that Jewish song, Kwanza song, Chrisitan song, Pagan song. You people will show your true agenda (which is NOT to love your fellow man) by getting all pissy about the Hanukkah songs, Kwanza songs, and Yule songs. So they either have to drop ALL religious songs or sing them all. You've made them a nice catch-22 there. Dicks.

b. This also applies to displays of religious natures. See, it's all or nothing. Once again, you make sure they have no idea which way is right by hating whatever they do either way and making a big stink over it.

3. You are so in this war alone. It's funny, but every fuckin' year it's the "CHRISTIANS" who start the shit. Some innocent person goes off to the wrong activist and says "Happy Holidays" with all the good intentions of the world and YOU people go off. You cause resentment (I swear you guys' AQ is higher than anyone else's on the planet, that's Annoyance Quotient for you idiots out there), you cause ill will, and then get mad at US...that's balls for you. If I KNOW you're a "Christian" and every day do my damnedest to convert you, eventually you're going to start getting annoyed with me. Maybe even pissed off, then you might start pushing your religion just to get my goat. That's what you people do every fuckin' year. Newsflash: You're right, we DO wish you'd go away...just so you'll shut up and leave us the fuck alone. But we didn't until you started this shit. I don't like most of you people, you wouldn't know Jesus teachings if he came down here and gave you the Apple, but I never wished you gone until you started pushing harder and harder. Now I do wish you'd go away, but only for the peace factor. You can stay if you'll calm down and chill the fuck out. You can tell me Merry Christmas and I'll say Happy Holidays and we'll smile and wish each other well and MOVE THE FUCK ON.

4. Can you only feel love if you scream about Jesus? What is this thing you got here where no one can be thankful of what they have, appreciative of spending time with their family, basking in the glow of their loved ones UNLESS they have the Jesus sticker? Do you really think that NO other religion, or even no other human being, can feel those things except you? You had a nice idea going on: A holiday where you spend time with your family and show appreciation and bask in their love. We liked that idea...we used it. Ok, so for us it's not about the Jesus. But it seems we're doing what Jesus said, and apparently that's the only thing the man asked for for his birthday. At least WE are giving the man his wish...you're just too busy being a "christian" instead of acting like one. Damn near every one of you is nothing but a Sunday "christian" anyhow. You act all nice in church, but I see you on the internet. The only people carrying around as much hate and intolerance and childishness is Al Quaida. You people need some Jesus therapy, and I know just the perfect Christian to do it. Shame is, he's too Christian to want to be around you folks. It would sadden him, he'd try I know, but he'd be so ashamed of you....

Look, just enjoy the fuckin' holiday alright. Try a bit of that Jesus love he left behind and you've been thumbing your nose at. As Bill and Ted said:

Be excellent to each other. Party on, dudes.
