Thanksgiving leftovers aren’t the only things that get reheated this time of year — so do the “Christmas wars,” and with it people’s tempers. While you may be chided for saying “Merry Christmas,” you haven’t lost sight of the many other real threats to religious expression.
—
Tony Perkins, via Family Research Council press release.
Quick note to world: you will not be chided for saying “Merry Christmas.” No, you won’t. You never have been. No, you haven’t. The end. Knock it off.
PS: If occasionally having to hear other viewpoints or share a national holiday with other religions strikes you as a threat to your expression, you should try not being able to get married, or having religious and political leaders call you Satan.
