    So, apparently, in my former post, people got offended because I called it a "Christmas sale".
    My apologies, but all I ever see are "Christmas" sales. So, yeah.
    I don't really care about anyone's religion, and I know people don't care about mine. If it really bothers you that much that I said "Christmas", sorry. But anyway, we're getting a HOLIDAY sale. Yay    .


    EDIT: Please don't turn the comment section into a religious argument- The thread WILL be locked!

    @Dakoda You did not respond at all in that forum post so you can not say that it was no big deal. For some people (including myself), I was kind of offended. I was appreciating the fact that she went the extra step to apologize for a little mistake.

    It wasn't a big deal to him is what he was saying.. And Just because they don't comment on the thread doesn't make them oblivious to what it is..

    I don't see how. I can't wish people who celebrate Christmas a merry Christmas? I wouldn't care if you wished others a happy Hanukkah or kawanza or happy stare at a dead frog day. Your sensitivity and political correctness is overwhelming. People like you are why this country is going to hell in a hand basket.

    Not everyone here celebrates Christmas, I do not celebrate Christmas in the traditional sense, but I still wish all my Christian friends merry Christmas and cheerfully say it back to those who wish it to me. But when it is strangers I take the sensitive route and say happy holidays.
    People who do not celebrate Christmas are not the people who are bringing your country down, considering the premise of your country was to accept people of ANY religion, being sensitive and politically correct is what makes your country great, there are so many other things that bring countries down other than immigrants ( or multi generation immigrants) that take offense to people wishing them Merry Christmas.

    There are many many other people that celebrate something other than Christmas living in the states you have Kwanzaa , Solstice , Yule , Id al-Adha , even the Buddhists have a celebration in December , so many religions so many celebrations.

    Didn't say it wAs the people who don't celebrate wAs the reason. It's the political correctness and trying to walk on egg shells to make sure we don't offend a small minority in this country. America is a Christian country. The majority of the people are. It's a fact. The problem is we are made ashamed to say it or admit it. If we do we are labeled intolerant of others. Didn't Alex himself call it a Christmas sale? Its his server. If it offends others there is plenty of others servers that will cater to them.
