Chistmas has almost become so secular that it barely reflects its religious roots at this point. I dont want to offend anyone, but now days, most kids when asked what Chistmas means will tell you "Getting presents", I have seen...

MandaPanda1219 Woah woah woah...I never said that I consider myself a christian here. I do not go to church, I do not evangelize, I do not pray, what I am seeing is a bunch of retailers using a day that many christians value to make a fortune and I think it is wrong.

MandaPanda1219 I totally agree with everything that you just said. Very well put and to the point. And the sad thing is, it isnt that we try to put religion into everything, people are trying to take it out of everything. We are getting so concerned with "politically...

MandaPanda1219 Very very good point. I really dont see any other religion's holidays being scrutinized and altered to fit our needs...so why is it that christians have to hide thier holidays and beliefs to suit all the others?

MandaPanda1219 My gosh! See that is exactly what has discouraged me so much when it comes to chistmas. I have not celebrated christmas since I was about 16 just for the fact that I think it is being used to boost the economy more than anything now days. Last year my...

MandaPanda1219 Thank you very much for your input and thank you for the very informative articles that you added as well. You stated that it has become just a "feel good" holiday rather than a religious one is something that I totally agree with. What do you mean that it...

MandaPanda1219 I totally agree, and your answer really fits with my next discussion topic as well. In my opinion Chistmas has gotten way to secularized and no longer reflects what it was supposed to mean to begin with. I also agree that people are way to quick to sue...

MandaPanda1219 I'm sorry, never really been political and my boyfriend is very knowledgeable on politics. I want to be able to hold up in a conversation with him, where so conservatives/republicans stand on the more pressing political issues?

MandaPanda1219 ouch, those always hurt. I'm sorry to hear that. I am the exact opposite. I can like cut off emotion, it is still there, and I still love them, but I can push it back it seems and sever all feelings. I seem to do it even to the good ones and it is starting...

MandaPanda1219 HAHA that is awesome and congrats for the long marriage. Those are hard to pull off these days it seems. With all of the corruption and lies in relationships today it is amazing people still take that leap. By the way, how did your mum get rid of him? :)

MandaPanda1219 I know, it's pathetic, I am ashamed of myself. Sadly most would do anything to make a buck and when they are so hard to come by some of us are reduced to this. On the flip side, I have really found some good discussions on here and am more at the point now...

MandaPanda1219 haha I have tried that one, one time I was calling in to work because my car broke down, I called an hour before my shift and I finally talked to a manager at the time that my shift was supposed to start. Hows that for warning?

MandaPanda1219 Is it like psycho calling annoying or like restraining order annoying? I had this guy that I broke up with, and we were living together at the time, HE NEVER LEFT! I had to move for him to leave. It was like he "forgot" that we broke up. It was nuts.

MandaPanda1219 haha yeah it seems that all MMORPGs are your second life :) Do you ever see yourself trying a different one? I find the hardest thing for me to do is pay $15.00/mo for an online game. Now that I look at how much I have spent (time and money), it seems like...
